- Hi there,
- Is it a bug or am i imagining things?i noticed in my calculus class
- that ->Qpi doesnt work on decimals that end up being,pi/2 or pi/3
- if its something like 2pi/3 thats fine but not single multiples of pi
- in the numerator?does anyone know why this occurs?my old 28s's program
- ->Qpi handles these fine(i guess ill transfer that one over before i
- sell my 28...).
-
- Can anyone explain this,
- also i think there was a prog called 'sqrt' or something like that on
- the 28s archives that converted decimals into there equivilent
- fractions such as .70710678 == sqrt2/2 or something like that.is there
- a similar program at a 48 ftpsite?
