Excel bug?
I believe I have found an excel bug.
To replicate it put the following simple formulae in excel.
In A1 put: 2.7
In A2 put: -4.3
In A3 put: 2.2
In A4 put: =5.2+(-5.8)
In A6 put: =sum(A1:A4)
If you make A6 show as many decimal places as possible you will suddenly
discover a very small number is being produced. Oddly if you set A4 to
contain -0.6 then it solves the problem.
Any ideas what's going on?
Alex.
