Real–Number Functions

This chapter covers most of the calculator's functions that perform computations on real numbers, including some numeric functions used in programs (such as ABS, the absolute–value function):

„Exponential and logarithmic functions.

„Quotient and Remainder of Divisions.

„Power functions. (and )

„Trigonometric functions.

„Hyperbolic functions.

„Percentage functions.

„Physics constants

„Conversion functions for coordinates, angles, and units.

„Probability functions.

„Parts of numbers (number–altering functions).

Arithmetic functions and calculations were covered in chapters 1 and 2. Advanced numeric operations (root–finding, integrating, complex numbers, base conversions, and statistics) are described in later chapters.

Exponential and Logarithmic Functions
