Torsten Manz 15c emulator errors...?



#3

Maybe I'm doing something stupid but using Torsten Manz's fine 15C emulator occasionally results in obvious and bizarre errors. For example, right now I'm dividing 3,750 by 76,700 and it's returning 0.181132872. That's clearly wrong. What gives? I've also encountered errors using the sin cos and tan functions. Can anyone replicate this?

Thanks!

I had never heard of this particular emulator until now, but if it is giving you incorrect results, you should probably send Mr. Manz a bug report. It sounds like his floating-point code is buggy.
