I'm shocked). :-p

Fortunately, double precision mode is documented as not being necessarily accurate


Now consider the 42S which gets twelve correct digits, in a much older calculator with fewer resources or the 15C which gets ten correctly rounded digits with even less.

The 35S has taken a retrograde step here.
