Simulator not working - compsystems - 11-08-2024 08:05 PM

The simulator does not work, many times it hangs in the sense that some keys stay pressed and the emulator does not respond, this has been reported many times and HP has ignored it.

Trying to write this expression crashes the emulator, I hope you can reproduce the bug.


74_deg + 42_mn*(1_deg/60_mn) + 15_s *(1_deg/3600_s) [Enter]


you can see that the SPACE and DOT keys are stuck, also the ALPHA key is not responding, please try to reproduce the error.

thank you

This works fine for me in both the emulator and on the physical calc and I get the expected 74°42'15"

You do know you can't put 42' - that will be a syntax error, you have to put 0°42', same with your 3600s - that has to be 0°0'3600"

Never seen your stuck keys issue on Mac or Win

On the physical calculator it works fine

You must be in CAS mode and in the simulator, and the expression must be typed from the PC keyboard.

74_deg + 42_mn*(1_deg/60_mn) + 15_s *(1_deg/3600_s) [enter] 74.7041666667_deg
