Display formats

The calculator can display numbers in four formats : floating point, fixed point, scientific, and engineering.

Floating point display format

The floating point format displays numbers in decimal form, using up to 10 digits. Any trailing zeros are truncated.

If the result of a calculation is too large to be represented in 10 digits, the display automatically switches to scientific format. If the result of later calculations is small enough to be displayed in 10 digits, the calculator returns to floating point format.

(Ex.) : Set the display in floating display format.

Step: Press [ 2ndF ] [ TAB ] [ ● ]

Fixed point display format

DEG

0.

The fixed point, scientific, and engineering formats use a fixed number of decimal places to display numbers. If more than the selected number of decimal places is keyed, it will be rounded to the correct number of decimal places.

(Ex.) : Fix the display at 2 decimal places, then key in 3.256

Step 1: Press [ 2ndF ] [ TAB ] 2

Step 2: key in 3.256 [ = ]

DEG

DEG

On the contrary, if fewer than the selected number of decimal places is keyed, it will be padded with trailing zero.

(Ex.) : Fix the display at 4 decimal places, then key in 4.23

Step 1: Press [ 2ndF ] [ TAB ] 4
