This computer program was run with qb64v1000-win [13]. Copied by hand from the screen, the computer program’s complete output through JJJJ=-31976 is shown below:

6       6       3       9       4
7       5       6       26       5
4       2       3       -1.964422       -31993

6       6       6       6       6
6       6       6       6       8
7       2       1       -9.020425E-04
-31976

Above there is no rounding by hand; it is just straight copying by hand from the screen.

On a personal computer with a Pentium Dual-Core CPU E5200 @2.50GHz, 2.50 GHz, 960 MB of RAM and with qb64v1000-win [13], the wall-clock time through JJJJ=-31976 was 28 minutes.
