RE: sin(x)^2+cos(x)^2 = 1 on different calcs
Hello,

In excel
=100-99.99-0.01 -> 5.1157E-15
shows that it does not "move small differences to 0....

However, I have NO clue what might be going on with
=1/3+1-1-1/3 and =(1/3+1-1-1/3)

This is a very interesting case! and I really would like to know what is happening behind the scenes!
