![]() It is also 100% accurate.Ī really big calculator with 16 decimal places will return a value of 4.0000000000000000. ![]() It is 100% accurate.Ī slightly better calculator with 4 decimal places will return a value of 4.0000. The correct answer is 4.Ī cheap calculator with one decimal place will return the value of 4.0. The problem is finding a method to test it. I think a calculator that can display 15 digits (including guard digits) after the decimal point in a calculation is more accurate than a calculator which can only display 10 digits after the decimal point. I am thinking about the number of digits that can be shown in a scientific calculation of a certain calculator and from there determining the degree of accuracy of that specific calculator. I know that calculators are accurate most of the time, but I am testing the degree of accuracy of calculators, like "low accuracy", "normal accuracy", "good accuracy", "very good accuracy", "extremely good accuracy", etc. By accuracy, I mean "Accuracy is the degree of conformity of a measured or calculated quantity to its actual (true) value". If you can think of a better hypothesis, tell me and I will consider changing it. Well, I know that price (money) is not a very objective factor in science, but I cannot think of anything else. Does the price of a calculator affects its accuracy?
