minus-squareno banana@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·edit-212 hours agoIt seems to be right on the K switch. And yeah. Konstant makes sense. The numbered switch seems to check out at least. Other than the F. F just gives me a single decimal. edit: no… Three…? Not sure about the right switch. It adds an I in the upper right corner and it seems possible to flip between different calculation results. Maybe?
minus-squarerockerface 🇺🇦@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·11 hours agoF is likely Floating point - so, just regular precision. Not sure what A would be, then
minus-squareraccoon@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·10 hours agoChecks out, since floating point is “flyttal” in Swedish.
minus-squaretyler@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·11 hours agoFor checking F try typing in an irrational number. Like 22/7
minus-squareno banana@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up10·edit-211 hours agoYeah that certainly worked Photo for the nerds who like screens Note: the display is actually a deep green to the eyes.
minus-squareidiomaddict@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·10 hours agoWhat does 22/7 get you under “A?”
minus-squareno banana@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·edit-29 hours agoSetting it to A and only punching the numbers divides 0.22/7 and results in 0.03. Actually dividing 22/7 gives us some tasty π. 3.14.
minus-squarejuliebean@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·9 hours agodid you just suggest a ratio as an irrational number?

Well he doesn’t have a pi button.
