Thx, I had not discovered that feature yet.

However if I do that, it displays: 0.666666666666667, so not actually revealing the full accuracy used internally, which is the point of doing what I did (a stupidly simple but effective trick I learned from JKH).

The complexity of each line on the stack will have as much impact on memory as the number of lines on the stack. I've had over 100 lines on my Nexus 5X. I think you will get bored of typing before you hit the limit.

Great news, thanks for clarifying.

From reading other posts, I see more enhancements coming, thanks for looking into those issues, but what about retaining the stack across sessions? If this were a simple four-banger, there's probably little need to retain history, but a lot of effort can go into assembling a stack full of meaningful numbers, it's a shame to lose that when quitting the app.

FYI My Motorola phone is Android 4.4.2 and I DO get haptic feedback.
