"i want accuracy of 0.0001 Kms."
Well, there's the little fact that Keil's C51 compiler only supports 32 bit float.

Of course, but does that not mean that that the processor choice is wrong. Doing 64 bit floating point on a '51 would need to run overnight to complete.

using a microcontroller for calculations of that maginitude does not make sense.
