RE: Classic, Woodstock and Spice Emulators
Ok, sorry for the confusion. I really shouldn't write in a hurry and then comment from my mobile phone without checking what I have actually writenn...
Apparently I made a copy and paste mistake when quoting the code I used for Bernhards emulator. The correct code is: Code:
If the MODE section is now changed to Code:
everything works fine. The comments in the code are A) the code for Willis Simulator (sorry for confusing it with an emulator before, which it cant be if it displays different results from the real calculator) B) the key codes and then below the actual program C) Willis text regarding the program running on his simulator (which by the way is very nice too, and I used frequently until I dropped my ipad and the screen broke) And here is my interpretation of Willis comment on the rounding: The mathematically correct result would be rounded to a 9 in the last digit. The real calculator cannot do that as it has no extra digits and therefore no information on how to round the last digit. So the result is both correct as in it is the best the calculator can do given its limitations, and at the same time incorrect if you were to look at the mathematically correct result. Willis Simulator overcomes those limitations by adding extra internal digits and therefore displays the mathematically correct result. |
