Hello,
I have a question, wish learning, and need help. It's about "There's a little bit off between numerical evaluation and symbolic simplify"
I need help with a brief explanation.
Thank you in advance.
Regards,

The numeric evaluation has limited precision, so any (32-bit calc) is typically limited to ~10 decimal places. Examples which calculate small differences between two numbers lose accuracy rapidly. Here's a simpler example:

I'm not sure what point you are trying to make, but this is not a good way to get the "correct" answer. I have warned repeatedly about using the float keyword. It does not just limit the precision of the result, it limits the precision of the calculations!
