CASIO fx-G50 Python
I noticed that the manual for the CASIO fx-CG50 states that the accuracy of calculations utilizing Python differs from that of the calculator. How it differs was not stated. Does anyone on the forum know?

RE: CASIO fx-G50 Python
I think the MicroPython port uses IEEE-754 double precision binary format.

Here's an example calculation:
Code:
>>>1.0000000000000002-1
2.22044604925031e-16
(The given result is 2^-52)
