Numerical Calculations
# In the function f(x), only X can be used as
a variable in expressions. Other variables
(A through Z excluding X, r, θ) are treated
as constants, and the value currently
assigned to that variable is applied during the
calculation.
# Input of the tolerance (tol) value and the
closing parenthesis can be omitted. If you
omit tolerance (tol) value, the calculator
automatically uses a value for tol as 1E-10.
# Specify a tolerance (tol) value of 1E-14 or
greater. An error (Time Out) occurs whenever
no solution that satisfies the tolerance value
can be obtained.
# In the Math input mode, the tolerance value is
fixed at 1E-10 and cannot be changed.
# Inaccurate results and errors can be caused by
the following:
- discontinuous points in
x values
- extreme changes in
x values
- inclusion of the local maximum point and local
minimum point in x values
- inclusion of the inflection point in
x values
- inclusion of undifferentiable points in
x values
- differential calculation results approaching zero
