Hi,
I had a question about something I found in Mathematica 5.2... I was
plotting Log[x-1]-2 with x = {0,10} and y = {-10,5} and strangely found
that the graph crossed the x-axes at approximately x == 8 ...
It should be 101 of course, but it seemed like 8. Then I did an Nsolve
with the equation set to 0, and low and behold got an answer x == 8.38906.
Is this a bug in mathematica or am I missing something here?
