You are doing something wrong Duncan. I ran that same seires by calculater and
got identical results. Which of course you have to. There is no difference
between multiplying 110 by the 12th root of 2 and multiplying 110 by the
1200th root of 2 one hundred times. Think about it.
by my calculator ..... 110 * (1200w2)^100 = 116,5409403795.....
and 110 * 12w2 = 116,5409403795...
For your information.... the exact results you come up with are the result of
takeing 110 times 1200w2 .....99 times instead of 100. That my friend... is your
error. Grin...
