Your to there it is fine, but 1.6 already yieldsa result that is completely meaningless (0.02986). Amazing how limited this calculator is.

See the operating instructions at https://www.wass.net/manuals/Sinclair%20...mmable.pdf. It’s by design and documented, so it’s a feature :-)

In case you can’t stand the poor machine, just send it to me, I think I can live with its limitations ;-)
