RE: Possible bug on HP50G with very large numbers
Yes, I quite understand and agree with your answer.
Two observations 1) x! =for x >281 corresponds to a very large number and nevertheless the HP50G calculator manages quite well the calculation. 2) Let y = log(300!) = log(30605...). And the calculator should give the right approximation instead of an unexpected answer. For instance, let z = size (300!) by reckoning « 300! —>STR SIZE ». Then y = log(3.0605) * 10^(z) =. 4858 * 10^z = 4.858 * 10^(z-1). |
