Ok, a couple of more things I just thought of, and THEN
I give up. It's just something you should keep in mind
in checking the things you've already checked.
If you're in a subdirectory and, for instance, have 2.5
stored in R but this R resides in a parent (or
grandparent, etc.) directory. The calculator will find
and use that R in your expressions. So, you might want
to check the parent directories for R, g, & t
The other thing easily overlooked by a newbie is that,
while 4 is an integer, 4. is not.
Good luck

long as they don't have constants.) In this sense it
doesn't perform the example given in Chap.5 pages 5-2,
5-3 the way it is supposed to as one of the expressions

guide???
