Line 394: Why sqrt(4) - 2 in [[Windows calculator]] gives -8.1648465955514287168521180122928e-39? [[User:Barellor\|Barellor]] ([[User talk:Barellor\|talk]]) 05:01, 9 June 2019 (UTC) :On my computer, it gives 0. Perhaps on yours, it has a round off error which is not hidden? See [[Catastrophic cancelation]]. In any case, this is the wrong place to ask such a question. We are not responsible for the functioning of Windows.
