	3998	unsigned long value returned from long double %s().

Arithmetic type - Implicit conversions

An expression of integral type (unsigned long) is being implicitly converted to a floating type (long double). Is this intended ?

Implicit type conversions of this nature can occur in the context of:

initializations
assignment operations
balancing operations
the passing of a function argument
the return of a value from a function
