RE: Discrepancy between HP 50g and DM42
The 35s and 50g (and most other HP models which use BCD math with a 12-digit mantissa) round all intermediate results to 12 significant digits. You'll get the same result on your DM42 if you put it into SCI 11 mode and execute RND after each operation, which is essentially what the 35s and 50g do automatically.
