Is it possible to calculate higher numbers by loosing speed? HP PRIME G1 - kappi1997 - 10-01-2022 08:35 AM
Hello everyone
I'm using my HP Prime G1 since years. Until now i never had a problem but now at university i need to work with higher Numbers in statistics and the calculator just defines them as infinite. For example the faculty of 2^10! is just infinite.
Is it possible to let the calculator work longer but not just simplify it? Because otherwise i'd have to buy another one
Thank you in advance.

Thank you very much the PERM() function fixed my issue to some point since i mainly use it for that formula. But still would be interested in having the possibility to calculate bigger nummbers. Didn't find a solution for that except for exact that formula

Yes, you can calculate any size of numbers that you want and the RAM allows. You have to do manual type calculation algorithms on numbers stored in strings, it will cost time, but will let you use numbers of any size.
