Differential/Integral Functions (5)

Differential and integral calculations are only available in the normal mode. For calculation conditions such as the x value in differential calculation or the initial point in integral calculation, only numerical values can be entered and equations such as 2 2 cannot be specified. It is possible to reuse the same equation over and over again and to recalculate by only changing the conditions without re-entering the equation.

• When performing a calculation, the value stored in the X memory will be cleared.

• When performing a differential calculation, enter formula first and then enter x value in differential calculation and minute interval (d x ). If a numerical value is not specified for minute interval, x ≠

0 will be x ×

10 –4 and x =0 will be 10 –4 from the value of the numeric derivative.

• When performing a integral calculation, enter formula first and then enter a range of integral ( a , b ) and subintervals (n). If a numerical value is not specified for subintervals, calculation will be performed using n=100.

Since differential and integral calculations are performed based on the following equations, correct results may not be obtained, in certain rare cases, when performing special calculations which contain discontinuous points.

[When performing integral calculations]

Integral calculations, depending on the integrands and subintervals included, require longer calculation time. During calculation,

“Calculating!” will be displayed. To cancel calculation, press ª . In addition, please note that there will be greater integral errors when there are large fluctuations in the integral values during minute shifting of the integral range and for periodic functions, etc., where positive and negative integral values exist depending on the interval.

For the former case, divide integral intervals as small as possible. For the latter case, separate the positive and negative values.

Following these tips will allow results of calculations with greater accuracy and will also shorten the calculation time.

Temporary memories and last answer memory are cleared even when the same mode is reselected.

Chain Calculations (8)

This calculator allows the previous calculation result to be used in the following calculation.

The previous calculation result will not be recalled after entering multiple instructions.

Fraction Calculations (9)

This calculator performs arithmetic operations and memory calculations using a fraction, and conversion between a decimal number and a fraction.

• In all cases, a total of up to 10 digits including integer, numerator, denominator and the symbol ( l ) can be entered.

• If the number of digits to be displayed is greater than 10, the number is converted to and displayed as a decimal number.

• A decimal number, variable, or exponent cannot be used in a fraction.

Binary, Octal, Decimal, and Hexadecimal Operations

(N-Base) (10)

This calculator can perform conversions between numbers expressed in binary, octal, decimal and hexadecimal systems. It can also perform the four basic arithmetic operations, calculations with parentheses and memory calculations using binary, octal, decimal, and hexadecimal numbers. In addition, the calculator can carry out the logical operations AND, OR, NOT, NEG, XOR and XNOR on binary, octal and hexadecimal numbers.

Conversion to each system is performed by the following keys:

@ê : Converts to the binary system. “ ” appears.

@î : Converts to the octal system. “ ” appears.

@ì : Converts to the hexadecimal system. “ ” appears.

@í : Converts to the decimal system. “ ”, “ ”, and “ ” disappear from the display.

Conversion is performed on the displayed value when these keys are pressed.

Note: In this calculator, the hexadecimal numbers A – F are entered by pressing µ , Ñ , É , é , ç , and å , and displayed as follows:

A

→ ï , B

→ ∫ , C

→ ó , D

→ ò , E

→ ô , F

→ ö

In the binary, octal, and hexadecimal systems, fractional parts cannot be entered. When a decimal number having a fractional part is converted into a binary, octal, or hexadecimal number, the fractional part will be truncated. Likewise, when the result of a binary, octal, or hexadecimal calculation includes a fractional part, the fractional part will be truncated. In the binary, octal, and hexadecimal systems, negative numbers are displayed as a complement.

Time, Decimal and Sexagesimal Calculations (11)

Conversion between decimal and sexagesimal numbers can be performed. In addition, the four basic arithmetic operations and memory calculations can be carried out using the sexagesimal system.

Modify Function

(12)

(13)

In this calculator, all calculation results are internally obtained in scientific notation with up to 12 digits for the mantissa. However, since calculation results are displayed in the form designated by the display notation and the number of decimal places indicated, the internal calculation result may differ from that shown in the display. By using the modify function, the internal value is converted to match that of the display, so that the displayed value can be used without change in subsequent operations.

COMPLEX NUMBER CALCULATIONS (14)

To carry out addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division using complex numbers, press @m1 to select the complex number mode.

There are two modes of expression of the results of complex number calculations.

1 Rectangular coordinate mode. ( xy appears on the display.)

@}

2 Polar coordinate mode. ( r

θ

: argument

• Upon changing to another mode, the imaginary portion of any complex number stored in the independent memory (M) will be cleared.

• A complex number expressed in rectangular coordinates with the y-value equal to zero, or expressed in polar coordinates with the angle equal to zero, is treated as a real number.

ERROR AND CALCULATION RANGES

Errors

An error will occur if an operation exceeds the calculation ranges, or if a mathematically illegal operation is attempted. When an error occurs, pressing < (or > ) automatically moves the cursor back to the place in the equation where the error occurred. Edit the equation or press ª to clear the equation.

Error Codes and Error Types

Syntax error (Error 1):

•An attempt was made to perform an invalid operation.

Ex. 2 @{

Calculation error (Error 2):

• The absolute value of an intermediate or final calculation result equals or exceeds 10 100 .

• An attempt was made to divide by 0.

• The calculation ranges were exceeded while performing calculations.

Depth error (Error 3):

• The available number of buffers was exceeded. (There are 8 buffers* for numeric values and 16 buffers for calculation instructions). *4 buffers in STAT and the complex number mode.

Equation too long (Error 4):

• The equation exceeded its maximum input buffer (142 characters).

An equation must be shorter than 142 characters.

Calculation Ranges (19)

Refer also to the operation examples sheet.

• Within the ranges specified, this calculator is accurate to ±1 in the least significant digit of the mantissa. When performing continuous calculations (including chain calculations), errors accumulate leading to reduced accuracy.

• Calculation ranges
