It doesn't say how many, and it does indicate that this extra internal precision was not used for all functions. It does mention using a 13-digit approximation of pi internally, for argument reduction. I'm seeing several differences between these results and Joe Horn's earlier post For which models is 2^3>8? I'm particularly surprised at seeing the 25 and 25C Return different results, and the 65 getting it right... |
