Moderator Note - I asked the author to provide more detailed information related to the emails below. The notebook mentioned can be found at http://smc.vnet.net/testing.nb. ------- Attached please find the Mathematica code I am running. The bugs I mentioned arise sometimes and not necessarily in one run. I use Math v7. Regards, Tugrul Tugrul Temel wrote: > > Here is an example of a so called "bug".
