Hello,

the Ti folks can integrate EXP(-X^2), e. g. from -infinity to
infinity. If I try this on my 50G this way:

* enter integral in equation editor, ENTER
* EVAL it (X becomes Xt?!)
* ->NUM

.... it says "->NUM error: Overflow". With both borders real it works
though. How could I work around this problem and calculate this
integral with infinite borders?

Regards,


Bj�rn

'\.S(-\oo,\oo,EXP(-SQ(X)),X)' \->NUM

Thanks. Unfortunately, this gave me an overflow error just as
before ...

So some flags may be set wrongly -- how can I correlate the menu
entries with those numbers?

I'm sorry, I don't understand. What should be turned off, is it
about base conversions?

I vote for having this text on the next probe to outer space, who is
with me?

The easiest thing to do would be to set those flags as he had the,
using STOF,
and slowly change flags back to your preferred settings, trying the
calculation after every few changes to find out where the problem is.

That is just one of John H Meyer's signature lines. It stands for the
rightshift "OFF" (ON key) combination that turns the calculator off.
As far as I can tell, that means he actually tested what he talked
about on his calculator, and since he is done, he turns it off.
