Floating Point Issue

[mahamuni ashish]

I have small code....

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

int main()
{
float f= 1256.35;
char ch[4];

printf("\n1. f : %f",f);
memset(ch,'\0',strlen(ch) );
printf("\n2. f : %f",f);
return 0;
}

Expected output is
1. f : 1256.35
2. f : 1256.35

But I am getting the output
(on windows)
1. f : 1256.35
2. f : 0.000000

(on Linux)
1. f : 1256.35
segmentation fault

why?
