Scientific Function Calculations

Unless otherwise noted, the functions in this section can be used in any of the calculator’s calculation modes, except for the BASE-N Mode.

Scientific Function Calculation Precautions

When performing a calculation that includes a built-in scientific function, it may take some time before the calculation result appears. Do not perform any key operation on the calculator until the calculation result appears.

To interrupt an on-going calculation operation, press @.

Interpreting Scientific Function Syntax

Text that represents a function’s argument is enclosed in braces ({ }). Arguments are normally {value} or {expression}.

When braces ({ }) are enclosed within parentheses, it means that input of everything inside the parentheses is mandatory.
