Unrelated: I noticed that Python always uses radians no matter what the angle setting also.

I was thinking about adding a ticket for this to the bug tracker, but the online Python math docs do describe, e.g., math.sin(x) as returning the sine of x radians. (Possibly, longer term, there could / should be a reconciliation of the Python and PPL arithmetics.)

I don't think any settings in HOME have something to do with Python. No bug, surprise

I completely agree. Python should remain an independent environment fully compatible with Python documentation.

I'm really late to this party having just bought my G2 over the weekend, but being able to use values with units in the solver is a critical item for me. I use this all the time on my 48sx for calculations in class as an easy sanity check my math is correct (or at least has a higher probability of not being way off).

The lbf to N bug is back on the newly released 2.20 firmware - revision 15157

none of CAS bugs are fixed in 09-2024 update...what's going on?

While radians are the default for most languages, many languages provide utilities for working with degrees as well. Radians are chosen because they simplify the underlying mathematical computations.

Python C C++ … use radians by default this is nothing to do with the hp prime, it’s just the way things are.
