Euler Identity in Home

[Manolo Sobrino]

Hallelujah, Joe!

Yes, exactly. It's nice to agree every once in a while

(And now that we're on the same frequency, if you read the posts again you might catch the nuances.)

An inconsistent precision implementation is like using an scalpel to peel tomatoes. If you're a seasoned surgeon you might do wonders with it. If you're not... well, imagine the consequences.

I'd just prefer a consistent precision throughout all the calculations and/or proper rounding. Using your word, I use calculators for "approximate" results and want them accurate, predictable and sound.

I still can't understand how you can have high precision algorithms (BTW, the frequently great 50G behaves this way too) and then don't use that precision for everything else, leaving rounding for the final result. Now that Saturn is gone this ought to be possible. I can understand that in RPN mode this is not so easy to do and introducing, for instance, a visual mark beside the number you got as a result might be puzzling (and awesome), but when you're evaluating an expression, come on, it's all profit.

And then, this particular number "3.14159265359" is not really that interesting to be called on all the time. For instance, "3.1415926535897932384626433832795" is much more appealing
