MthIO LineIO     Specifies the display format. 
Natural Display (MthIO) causes fractions, 
irrational numbers, and other expressions to be 
displayed as they are written on paper.  
MthIO: Selects MathO or LineO. MathO displays 
input and calculation results using the same format as they are written on 
paper. LineO displays input the same way as MathO, but calculation results 
are displayed in linear format.
Linear Display (LineIO) causes fractions and  
other expressions to be displayed in a single 
line. 
Note: • The calculator switches to Linear Display automatically whenever 
you enter the STAT Mode.  • In this manual, the  symbol next to a 
sample operation indicates Natural Display (MathO), while the 1 symbol 
indicates Linear Display.
