34 significant digits are not enough for the task. That would require at least 50. Not a problem for the HP 50g in exact mode, though:

'(-80538738812075974)^3+80435758145817515^3+12602123297335631^3'

EVAL ->

42


PS.: Unfortunately there are no solutions for 49 and 50.
Yes, I too saw that it need 50 significant digits. Though the Prime also in CAS manages the tak.

DM42 running WP43C works. I did it last week when this problem surfaced. WP43S will work by implication also.

Where can I find the 43 program?
