I have to trust others for the results on the real device (I only have the older 17Bii, and not the "Plus" - which actually should be called the "Minus" ...), but I tested the emulator against the known flaws (e.g. this equation: A=0xsigma(I:1:10:1:L(S:S+I)) ). Interestingly, the emulator seems more flawed here than the actual "Plus" (which is reported to return 110 for S):

On the older 17Bii, I get A=0 and S=55 (correct evaluation of the expression).

On the "Plus", people got A=0 and S=110.

On the emulator, I get "SOLUTION NOT FOUND", which obviously is not correct.

That is, after clearing the variables, and also after explicitly assigning 0 to them.

So, with the remark that I cannot test it on a real "Plus", the emulator seems to have a serious flaw here indeed.
