Does anyone know as to why the 48sx does not like negatives
in the COMB function.  They should be valid.

eg. COMB(-8,4) should return (-8)(-9)(-10)(-11)/(4!) = 330.

It isn't like HP to screw up on important functions like this.
Or, then again, is it...Hmmm :^).

PS.  What happened to the guy who was going to post those stats
routines of his.  I'm still interested if you can still post them.
