  Try the following line on your TI-83:

randM(1,1)*3^-1

  until you get the answer

[[-1]]

  (from dividing the matrix [[-3] by 3, presumably).
  Then type

fPart(Ans(1,1))

  Using TI-83 ROM Version 1.O8OOO, I get the answer

-1

  rather than zero, as expected.  Can anyone else
  reproduce this behavior?  If so, what other
  conditions cause the behavior?  What ROM versions
  does this work on?  [I've checked Kevtiva's site,
  and they don't seem to know about it.]
