press K. This opens the computer algebra system. If you want to return to Home view to make further calculations, press H.

Minimum Minimum. The lesser of two values.

MIN(value1,value2)

Example:

MIN(210,25) returns 25

Modulus Modulo. The remainder of value1/value2.

value1 MOD value2

Example:

74MOD 5 returns 4

Find Root Function root-finder (like the Solve app). Finds the value for the given variable at which expression most nearly evaluates to zero. Uses guess as initial estimate.

FNROOT(expression,variable,guess)

Example:

FNROOT((A*9.8/600)-1,A,1) returns 61.2244897959.

Percentage x percent of y; that is, x/100*y.

%(x,y)

Example:

%(20,50) returns 10

Complex

Argument Argument. Finds the angle defined by a complex number. Inputs and outputs use the current angle format set in Home modes.

ARG(x+y*i)

Example:

ARG(3+3*i) returns 45 (degrees mode)

Conjugate Complex conjugate. Conjugation is the negation (sign reversal) of the imaginary part of a complex number.

CONJ(x+y*i)

Example:

CONJ(3+4*i) returns (3-4*i)
