This must be due to the hardware. My processor is AMD Athlon(tm) 64x2 Dual
Core Processor 4200+.
I also tried the Format foreign conjunction and find it won't allow more
than 9 decimal places.
'0.9'8!:2 [%:2
1.414213562
'0.10'8!:2 [%:2
|domain error
| '0.10' 8!:2[%:2
Cheers,
Tom

Tom,
I find your second result very peculiar, I hope Roger will comment on it.
From several versions of j, I consistently get a different result -
9!:14''
4.05/2001-05-16/11:30
0j20": o. 1
3.14159265358979311600

I am quite curious to see what you might get from the following 2
