Test the extent of Capabilities. - matalog - 05-27-2021 10:12 PM
I was testing what the CAS mode could do, and tested, by trial and error, how high of a power I could put to 999999999, and it turned out to be 287, 288 returned undefined.
Just to see how long it might take, I then typed in 288th Root of the previous mentioned answer.
Now the G2 will not let me halt execution, turn off or anything. It is stuck with 22:56 on the clock, and it is now 23:11. When might I expect that I will be able to use the calculator again?
The hourglass is still moving, so it hasn't visibly crashed.

Have you tried poking a paperclip into the Reset hole in the back?

That's what I had to do, so I could turn it off to get to bed, lol.
