That seems to be how Walter (and Marcus, Pauli) intend the calculator to behave. Am I correct, Walter? First of all: I concur with your thanks to Bit for torture testing. He keeps finding things. Second: I concur with your thoughts about keeping consistency with the documentation. I must admit I overlooked the possibility of entering 0.0001e-383 and alike when writing p. 161 of the v3.1 manual (and I didn't crosscheck that later anymore). Anyway, this page as is states 1e-383 "is the smallest number that can be entered directly". And subsequently it is written 9.999 999 999 99e384 "is the greatest that can be entered directly". So I'd appreciate if we can keep it that way. If it's easier to just check the exponent being between 384 and -383 I could live with that as well. But as Bit pointed out I guess it isn't - entering [EEX] 384 [+/-] would need special treatment. Thanks in advance. And sorry for my sloppyness. d:-) |
