k Complex Mode and Real Mode
The Complex mode is for complex number calculations, while the Real mode is limited to
calculations within the range of real numbers. Performing a calculation in the Real mode
that produces a result that is outside the range of real numbers causes an error (Non-Real
Result error).

k Radian Mode and Degree Mode
You can specify radians or degrees as the angle unit for display of trigonometric calculation
results.

k Assistant Mode and Algebra Mode
The Algebra mode automatically simplifies mathematical expressions produced by
calculations. No simplification is performed in the Assistant mode. In the Assistant mode,
you can view intermediate results as well, which allows you to see the steps that lead to a
particular result as shown in the “expand” example below.
