Hi slope[50] stores more digits then is represented FullForm[slope[50]] returns 163.189230604459` If you want to display more digits you may use NumberForm NumberForm[slope[50],Infinity] returns 163.189230604459 look at the help for more advanced options of the NumberForm function yehuda On 1/2/06, Lea Rebanks <lrebanks at netvigator.com> wrote: > > > Given the enclosed function, I can not make Mathematica v5.1 display > greater than 3 decimals.
