RE: New firmware for the Swissmicros DM15L
I’ve found other minor inconsistencies in display format for real numbers.
With FIX 13: 7 1/x gives 0.1428571428571 so as expected 13 digits after the period. But then CHS gives -0.142857142857 so only 12 digits. With FIX 14, negative numbers are still displayed with 12 digits. With SCI 10, we have -1.428571429E-1 so only 9 digits after the period. With SCI 11, we have the same display. The same problem occurs with ENG mode. There is perhaps a more serious problem with ENG mode: it sets the number of digits after the period, whereas in the HP15C it sets the number of significant digits. For example in ENG 4 mode, 7 1/x is displayed 142.8571E-3, whereas the HP15C displays 142.86E-3 This affects the result of a subsequent RND function. Jean-Charles |
