[Frama-c-discuss] Value Analysis - assertion, slevel and sqrt function



Hi Pascal,

Thanks for your explanation.
In fact, with Frama_C_dump_each()  is easier to see what  happens.

Now, we will apply this in our case study, that is much more complex.

Thanks a lot!

Best regards,
Rovedy/Nanci/Luciana
