Best Answer

You should first experiment with the calculator by having a friend or relative work a

few problems with it, and observe whether the accuracy of the results is a function

of the machine itself or of the operator. If the accuracy varies with different operators,

then we can conclude that your calculator shares a well-known, exhaustively-documented

characteristic with all machines designed for human input or control. The characteristic is

referred to by mathematicians, physicists, engineers, and stenographers by the official

SI acronym: GIGO. The acronym stands for the phrase "Garbage In, Garbage Out".

Why does this website never get answers right?

Yes Yes We get more answers right than wrong. The wrong answers are part of the fun, we get to be smarter than the people who give us wrong answers and correct them. Keep in mind, many times you find a wrong answer, it is from some bored kid in computer class just vandalizing the site because he/she has nothing better to do. You could do your part and come in to give some good answers on subjects you are really smart at.

Is answers.com correct on all their answers?

Answers.com is a Wiki-site, which means that anybody can answer any question. So that means that no, it's not always correct. The supervisors try hard to make sure the answers are accurate, but there are so many people who are either wrong without knowing it, or who deliberately try to put wrong answers that we can't keep up with them all.
