wp34s doesn't give correct zeta function value
I'm using wp34s emulator on iPhone. Zeta function doesn't work as I expected.
0 ZETA > -0.5 1 ZETA > -5.17682194565 2 ZETA > -2.87602208383E-32 3 ZETA > 204.372738634 Can you guess why these number appeared? Double precision mode doesn't matter. S.Korean / HP-50G | fx-570EX | fx-570CW | HP-200LX |

These don't match the results I see....

RE: wp34s doesn't give correct zeta function value
It seems to be a bug in the iOS version and this is strange as it uses the same C code as the other emulators.
Even stranger: it occurs on my iPhone but not my Ipad nor on the emulator. I do not know if I can find the time to look at it (quite busy at the moment) but I'll try. |

RE: wp34s doesn't give correct zeta function value
FWIW, the Android port (awp34s by Pablo Martin) works fine (or at least it agrees with the HP 20b/30b version). I'm not sure exactly which revision it is based on. The VERS command shows "34S 3.3 0".

For me it crashes the app. (06-17-2021 12:15 PM)BINUBALL Wrote: If you still develop this app, I can give bug report for you. S.Korean / HP-50G | fx-570EX | fx-570CW | HP-200LX |

I verified that this works with an iOS version. I've no real hardware available currently.

RE: wp34s doesn't give correct zeta function value
Hello!
I have tried the following versions: iPad2, iOS 9.3.5, WP34s 1.18 iPhone8, iOS 15.3.1, WP34s 1.18 Samsung Galaxy A71, Android 11, WP34s 0.0.6 (?) All three do what they are supposed to do. Regards Max |

RE: wp34s doesn't give correct zeta function value
The WP34S implementation on the DM42 gives the wrong answers - the same wrong answers that have been reported on the iPhone version.
I've looked at the XROM code for the zeta function. It includes these lines: Code:
Code:
There are two things going on. First, I believe that the comparison "x>? 0" compares the value of x with the contents of register zero, rather than with the number zero. Second, as the code stands the comparison is with the fixed value of 1/2 that the previous command puts on the stack. This page here shows the most recent change to zeta.wp34s. It shows that Num 1/2 has been removed from the WP31S branch but not from other branches. All three branches contain what I believe to be the incorrect comparison operation. As a result of this, evaluating \(\zeta(x)\) for negative values of \(x\) gives incorrect answers. For example, on my iPad, my physical WP34S, and on a Windows emulator I get \(\zeta(-7)=4.547\dots\times10^{-3}\), whereas Wolfram Alpha gives \(\frac1{240}=4.166\dots\times10^{-3}\). The code with the corrected comparison operator gives the correct answer. Nigel (UK) |

Nice work Nigel. I don't know what I was smoking when I made those changes...

RE: wp34s doesn't give correct zeta function value
I've applied your suggested change to the code base.

RE: wp34s doesn't give correct zeta function value
I put 0 into register 0 and zeta function worked correctly.
Previously I had 10 in register 0. Probably it can give correct value after reset. S.Korean / HP-50G | fx-570EX | fx-570CW | HP-200LX |

RE: wp34s doesn't give correct zeta function value
It will give incorrect answers for some of the domain. Negative values e.g. would skip the reflection formula I think.
