Hi xiaoyafeng, Yes, I'm seeing the same errors in relation to `%extra` and `$codestr` with PDL-2.059 on perl-5.34.0. I've just filed a report at https://github.com/PDLPorters/pdl/issues/345. Cheers, Rob	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Unfortunately the line numbers are a bit misleading, and the error is nothing to do with %extra etc. The error is actually happening on a call to log10() when passed a PDL_Byte (unsigned char) and I think PDL_Ushort (unsigned short). I believe it's a compiler/libc bug of some sort.	[reply]

In fact, it's due to a new-ish change in GCC-land; on some versions, tgmath (type-generic maths) works fine for `log10`, but it seems they've changed that. Furthermore, clog10 (the complex version) is actually a GNU extension rather than part of C99, so I've adjusted ops.pd accordingly (and if there's no clog10 available, you can't do log10 on complex numbers, sorry - but it was ever thus). I've just released PDL 2.060 which I believe fixes this, so please give it a try.	[reply] [d/l]

I'm sure it's a compiler/libc bug, but the good news is I'm now able to reproduce it locally, so a fix should be available in due course.	[reply]

Thanks for the report! Could you share the result of `perl -V:gccversion`	[reply] [d/l]
