E-5 Using Menus Some of the calculator’s operations are performed using menus. Pressing N or w , for example, will display a menu of applicable functions. The following are the operations you should use to navigate between menus. • You can select a menu item by pressing the number key that corresponds to the number to its left on the menu scree[...]

E-6 6 Fix 7 Sci 8 Norm Specifies the number of digits for display of a calculation result. Fix: The value you specify (from 0 to 9) controls the number of decimal places for displayed calculation results. Calculation results are rounded off to the specified digit before being displayed. Example: b 100 ÷ 7 = 14.286 (Fix 3) 14.29 (Fix 2) Sci: The va[...]

E-7 Inputting Expr essions and V alues Basic Input Rules Calculations can be input in the same form as they are written. When you press = the priority sequence of the input calculation will be evaluated automatically and the result will appear on the display. 4 × sin30 × (30 + 10 × 3) = 120 4 * s 30 )*( 30 + 10 * 3 )= * 1 * 2 * 3 * 1 Input of th[...]

E-8 5th Negative sign (–) Note: When squaring a negative value (such as –2), the value being squared must be enclosed in parentheses ( ( - 2 ) w = ). Since x 2 has a higher priority than the negative sign, inputting - 2 w = would result in the squaring of 2 and then appending a negative sign to the result. Always keep the priority sequence in m[...]

E-9 ! As shown above, the value or expression to the right of the cursor after 1Y (INS) are pressed becomes the argument of the function that is specified next. The range encompassed as the argument is everything up to the first open parenthesis to the right, if there is one, or everything up to the first function to the right (sin(30), log2(4), et[...]

E-20 Rnd(10÷3) = 3.333 (with Fix 3), both the displayed value and the calculator’s internal value become 3.333. Because of this a series of calculations will produce different results depending on whether Rnd is used (Rnd(10÷3) × 3 = 9.999) or not used (10 ÷ 3 × 3 = 10.000). See 14 .
