Greater than is giving inconsistent answer

I am running two (slightly different) matalb programs in two different windows and getting incosistent answers on a very simple "greater than" equation. It is baffling me. 0.0417 is SOMETIMES > 0.0417, but not other times.
What am I missing here?

They're probably off in the 15th decimal place or something. Try this
format long
If that doesn't work try
fprintf('%30f\n', ans2);
There should be a difference somewhere. See the FAQ:
