Table Math Calculates Up To 4 Digits Right Of |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The user is concerned that tables math rounds off numbers. In cell A1, the user put in the math formula 10/351. If the table column is formatted for 2 decimal places WordPerfect calculates this to be .03; if the column is formatted for more than 4 decimal places it calculates .0285. This figure should be .0284. The user wants to know why WordPerfect is rounding off the numbers. Solutions: Development understands the concern about rounding numbers in math. Currently WordPerfect will calculate up to 4 digits to the right of the decimal, refer to the 5.1 manual on Math, Formulas. Development doesn't feel that it would be right to change this in the middle of a release. If that occurred, documents would calculate differently. So, please log this in as an enhancement request. |
