Package: maxima
Version: 5.35.1-1
Severity: minor
While working on sage+maxima+ECL, I discovered a few strange precision
issues : sometimes debian's maxima (GCL-based) seems to give a lesser
precision that what sage (using it's own ECL-based maxima) expects.
For example: tanh(1.0);
sage: 0.7615941559557649
debian: 0.7615941559557648
Another one: acosh(0.5);
sage: 1.047197551196598 %i
debian: 1.047197551196597 %i - 1.110223024625156E-16
That doesn't look enormous, but I'm still puzzled.
