Overview of Calculator Operations 9

* The random number you generate might be different.

** Angles can be computed in degrees or radians. Examples show

angles in degrees. (See “Choosing the Angle Units” on page 5.)

Universal Power ;

Press ; to raise the displayed positive number to any power (for

example, 2-5 or 2(1/3)).

Note: Because the reciprocal of an even number (such as, 1/2, 1/4, 1/6) is

a complex number, you can only raise a negative number to an integer

power or the reciprocal of an odd number.
