enter the function XROOT followed by the arguments (y,x), separated
by commas, e.g.,
In RPN mode, enter the argument y, first, then, x, and finally the
function call, e.g.,
• Logarithms of base 10 are calculated by the keystroke combination
(function LOG) while its inverse function (ALOG, or
antilogarithm) is calculated by using
. In ALG mode, the
function is entered before the argument:
In RPN mode, the argument is entered before the function
Using powers of 10 in entering data
Powers of ten, i.e., numbers of the form -4.5×10
-2
, etc., are entered by using
the key. For example, in ALG mode:
Or, in RPN mode:
• Natural logarithms are calculated by using
(function LN)
while the exponential function (EXP) is calculated by using
.
In ALG mode, the function is entered before the argument:
In RPN mode, the argument is entered before the function
