Calculators HP 50G complex numbers with a fraction?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around inputting a complex number in polar form on a calculator, specifically the HP 50G. Users encounter syntax errors when attempting to use the division symbol directly with the complex number format. A suggested workaround is to use parentheses around the division, such as entering it as ((1000/3), ∠36.87). However, one user reports that the only successful method they found was to express it as (1000, ∠36.87)/3. The conversation highlights the importance of formatting in calculator inputs to avoid errors.

I have a problem to put the complex number in mode (1000/3, ∠36.87), apparently the division simbol gives some syntax error

I don't have a 50G but you might try putting parens around the 1000/3, entering it as ((1000/3), ∠36.87).

thx for reply, but I've already tried this the only solution I've found was (1000, ∠36.87)/3

Hmm, I'll have to keep that one in mind. Sorta obvious once you point it out though. :rolleyes:

Thanks for the update.
 
In my discussions elsewhere, I've noticed a lot of disagreement regarding AI. A question that comes up is, "Is AI hype?" Unfortunately, when this question is asked, the one asking, as far as I can tell, may mean one of three things which can lead to lots of confusion. I'll list them out now for clarity. 1. Can AI do everything a human can do and how close are we to that? 2. Are corporations and governments using the promise of AI to gain more power for themselves? 3. Are AI and transhumans...
Thread 'ChatGPT Examples, Good and Bad'
I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
