0.15915494309189533576888376337251 is correct

Since no one gets it, I will explain it slowly.

Take 2*P1, =, then hit the 1/x key, then hit M+

This stores 0.15915494309189533576888376337251 in the memory.

Hit clear.

Hit MR

Hit /

Enter a cap value in µF.

Hit /

Enter the frequency in Khz.

Hit =

The answer is in Kilohms.

Start out with a reasonable cap value that you can actually buy, you can always get a 1% resistor value you need.

Example:

.159/.1µF/.1Khz=15.9K

By using Kkz and Kilohms and µF, you can use a simple four-funtion calculator and don't need exponential notation (or having to enter a whole bunch of zeros).
