Hi, I'm chasing for a lot of Digits in my mathematica computation. Unfortunately, I started mathematica two days ago and I do not understand every behaviour yet. Now, to the problem. I set Ndigits to 200 and using the N function for declaring some variables to be very accurate. But after t=Max[Cases[t./Solve[(p[[1]]+t*v[[1]])^4+(p[[2]]+t*v[[2]])^4==1,t],_?Positive]]; I lost almost all of the 200. How I can force this equation to be very accurate? Thank you for your help. Regards, Martin
