Does the new 15c ce utilise IEEE754 floats?

I too have the ti30 pro mathprint — nice calculator, but it’s non-programmable while the hp15c is programmable, so it’s comparing apples to oranges.

Re: the claim that the ti-30 “numerical integrator and solver are just as good,” you’re invited to try using the ti-30 numerical integrator to solve the contour integral in the hp15c Advanced Functions manual (a current thread topic in this forum). Also, the hp15c accepts complex arguments for all functions. “The competition has caught up”? Maybe in some areas, yes, while in others, it seems to have regressed IMHO.
