Note: • If the calculation becomes longer than the screen width during
input, the screen will scroll automatically to the right and the ;indicator will
appear on the display. When this happens, you can scroll back to the left by
using Band Cto move the cursor. • When Linear Display is selected,
pressing Dwill cause the cursor to jump to the beginning of the calculation,
while Awill jump to the end. • When Natural Display is selected, pressing
Cwhile the cursor is at the end of the input calculation will cause it to jump
to the beginning, while pressing Bwhile the cursor is at the beginning will
cause it to jump to the end. • You can input up to 99 bytes for a calculation.
Each numeral, symbol, or function normally uses one byte. Some functions
require three to 13 bytes. • The cursor will change shape to Iwhen there are
10 bytes or less of allowed input remaining. If this happens, end calculation
input and then press .
Calculation Priority Sequence
The priority sequence of input calculations is evaluated in accordance with the
rules below. When the priority of two expressions is the same, the calculation
is performed from left to right.

Negative sign (–), base-nsymbols (d, h, b, o)
Note: When squaring a negative value (such as –2), the value
being squared must be enclosed in parentheses (2 7;
). Since x2has a higher priority than the negative sign,
inputting 2 7would result in the squaring of 2 and then
appending a negative sign to the result. Always keep the priority
sequence in mind, and enclose negative values in parentheses
when required.

Important: • Certain types of expressions can cause the height of a
calculation formula to be greater than one display line. The maximum
allowable height of a calculation formula is two display screens (31 dots s2).
Further input will become impossible if the height of the calculation you are
inputting exceeds the allowable limit. • Nesting of functions and parentheses
is allowed. Further input will become impossible if you nest too many functions
and/or parentheses. If this happens, divide the calculation into multiple parts
and calculate each part separately.
Note: When you press and obtain a calculation result using Natural
Display, part of the expression you input may be cut off. If you need to view
the entire input expression again, press and then use Band Cto

As shown above, the value or expression to the right of the cursor after
&(INS) are pressed becomes the argument of the function that is
specified next. The range encompassed as the argument is everything up
to the first open parenthesis to the right, if there is one, or everything up to
the first function to the right (sin(30), log2(4), etc.)
This capability can be used with the following functions: , , ,
(), (), (), 5(), 2(), ,
, (), @(Abs).
Overwrite Input Mode (Linear Display only)
You can select either insert or overwrite as the input mode, but only while
Linear Display is selected. In the overwrite mode, text you input replaces the
text at the current cursor location. You can toggle between the insert and
overwrite modes by performing the operations: &(INS). The cursor
appears as “I” in the insert mode and as “ ” in the overwrite mode.
Note: Natural Display always uses the insert mode, so changing display
format from Linear Display to Natural Display will automatically switch to
the insert mode.
Correcting and Clearing an Expression
To delete a single character or function: Move the cursor so it is directly to
the right of the character or function you want to delete, and then press &.
In the overwrite mode, move the cursor so it is directly under the character
or function you want to delete, and then press &.
To insert a character or function into a calculation: Use Band Cto
move the cursor to the location where you want to insert the character or
function and then input it. Be sure always to use the insert mode if Linear
Display is selected.
To clear all of the calculation you are inputting: Press .
Toggling Calculation Results
While Natural Display is selected, each press of 5will toggle the currently
displayed calculation result between its fraction form and decimal form, its
form and decimal form, or its Pform and decimal form.

Rnd :The argument of this function is made a decimal value and then rounded
in accordance with the current number of display digits setting (Norm, Fix, or
Sci). With Norm 1 or Norm 2, the argument is rounded off to 10 digits. With
Fix and Sci, the argument is rounded off to the specified digit. When Fix 3
is the display digits setting, for example, the result of 10 ÷ 3 is displayed
as 3.333, while the calculator maintains a value of 3.33333333333333 (15
digits) internally for calculation. In the case of Rnd(10÷3) = 3.333 (with Fix
3), both the displayed value and the calculator’s internal value become
3.333. Because of this a series of calculations will produce different results
depending on whether Rnd is used (Rnd(10÷3) s3 = 9.999) or not used (10
÷ 3 s3 = 10.000). See 17 .
Note: Using functions can slow down a calculation, which may delay display
of the result. Do not perform any subsequent operation while waiting for the
calculation result to appear. To interrupt an ongoing calculation before its
result appears, press .
Integration and Differential Calculation Precautions
• Integration and differential calculations can be performed in the COMP
Mode () only.
• The following cannot be used in f(x), a, b, or tol: Pol, Rec, °, d/dx, 3.
• When using a trigonometric function in f(x), specify Rad as the angle
unit.
• A smaller tol value increases precision, but it also increases calculation
time. When specifying tol, use value that is 1 s10–14 or greater.
Precautions for Integration Calculation Only
• Integration normally requires considerable time to perform.
• For f(x) 0 where a x b(as in the case of 0
13x2 – 2 = –1), calculation
will produce a negative result.
• Depending on the content of f(x) and the region of integration, calculation
error that exceeds the tolerance may be generated, causing the calculator
to display an error message.
Precautions for Differential Calculation Only
• If convergence to a solution cannont be found when tol input is omitted,
the tol value will be adjusted automatically to determine the solution.
• Non-consecutive points, abrupt fluctuation, extremely large or small points,
inflection points, and the inclusion of points that cannot be differentiated,
or a differential point or differential calculation result that approaches zero
can cause poor precision or error.

Tips for Successful Integration Calculations
When a periodic function or integration interval results in positive and
negative f(x) function values
Perform separate integrations for each cycle, or for the positive part and the
negative part, and then combine the results.
When integration values fluctuate widely due to minute shifts in the
integration interval
Divide the integration interval into multiple parts (in a way that breaks areas
of wide fluctuation into small parts), perform integration on each part, and
then combine the results.
