[GRASSLIST:5791] R.reclass and floating point values

[Aldo Clerici]

Hi to everybody.

I reclassed the spearfish slope map with the command:
r.reclass input=slope output=slope.rec1
> 0 thru 10 = 1
> end

and with:
r.mapcalc slope.rec2="if(slope >=0 && slope <= 10,1,null())"

The two resulting maps are different.
This seems due to the r.reclass command that performs some sort of rounding
of the floating point values as results clear by inserting floating point
classes in the reclassing rules, as follows:
r.reclass input=slope output=slope.rec1
> 0.0 thru 10.0 = 1
the answer is:
0.500000 rounded up to 0
10.500000 rounded up to 10

In this way the original values between 10 and 10.5 are assigned the new
class 1.
Is there a way to avoid the rounding or r.mapcalc is the only solution?
Many thanks to anybody.
