I had to check it with my DM42. Well, it cannot calculate it's own self

WP43 can calculate 42

Yes WP43S can!
But DM42 can calculate 43 12^3 + 8^3 + (-13)^3

Re: The DM42 is not able to calculate 42.. ;-)
You can simplify the example for the testSuite for 43 (2^3 + 2^3 + 3^3), but I think for 41 there is no solution.

WP43* does also work the new non-trivial solution for 3 as well...

Re: The DM42 is not able to calculate 42.. ;-)
It's probably possible to calculate this on the dm42 you'd just have to write an arbitrary precision program, then calculate it.
Assuming the problem is related to precision.

Re: The DM42 is not able to calculate 42.. ;-)
Yes, it is related to precision. WP43S allows for integers with 1000 digits.

How can we transform a DM42 in a WP43 ?
