Re: PRIME Spreadsheet RPN Problem Message #5 Posted by Dougggg on 24 Oct 2013, 10:34 p.m., in response to message #4 by Michael de Estrada I have similar issues with the spreadsheet before causing rebooting, luckily not corrupting the calculator this time I know I had RPN on, so algebraic is the way to go, maybe if they have RPN automatically turn off when you select an app and switch back on when you Press Home or hopefully they will find a fix

I believe this is a design choice so that if something should cause the calculator to misbehave, then using a warmstart would revert the calculator back to the most recent "good" state (presumably the state in which the calculator was left just before the last power down).
