G1: https://www.hpcalc.org/details/7469

I installed it on my G1.

The top of the release notes, I mean these are the top release notes, highest, assumedly latest, even if the date of update isn't correct, is should be October, right?:


So, back to which one doesn't work on mines.

That contained (fixed bugs):

5. ABS(1/3+1/3+1/3) was not 1

But I can definitely tell you, that if I type (and I use the little vertical line instead of ABS, yeah?)
ABS(1/3+1/3+1/3) and then hit Enter, then I get the result of 0.9999999999.

Was that not one of the fixes?

Quote:fixed bugs:
1. no more reset in spreadsheet if goto and no entry
2. Most Geometry app display should follow the Number Format
3. #FF:64 edition in base was incorrect...
4. (2_s)^-1 gave a wrong result!
5. ABS(1/3+1/3+1/3) was not 1

Point 5 should have sorted out for me:

But if I search the manual

The release notes have not been updated for this release.

In CAS I get 1 for abs(1/3+1/3+1/3)

In Home I get .9999999999
