Where to report bug? Comma bug - Miguel Toro - 01-07-2014 08:53 PM
... of for instance, how to know about a list of reported bugs?
I would like to know if the problem about using comma as the decimal mark will be addressed. A little recall on this problem: using comma as the decimal mark (in Home/Setting/Decimal Mark) produce syntax errors when checking (compiling) programs, due to the fact that "," and ";" have specific meanings in HP PPL.
My workaround so far is to program with the emulator, which is always set to "." as decimal mark and then transfer the program to the calculator. After the program is successfully compiled in the calculator, I reset the mark to "," and that is it. Really tedious.
if, by mistake, rather than pressing "RUN" I press Enter or I just want to review the code, all the process start again: changing the Decimal mark and so on.
This is a regional setting that should not affect the capability of using other features of the calculator.
Regards,
Miguel
