Exponential display
During normal calculation, this unit is capable of displaying up to 10 digits. Values
that exceed this limit, however, are automatically displayed in exponential format.
You can choose between 2 different types of exponential display formats.
NORM 1 mode: 1 0 2(0.01)> |x | , |x | >=1010
NORM 2 mode: 10“9(0.000000001 )> |x|,|x| >=1010
Selection of these modes can be carried out by pressing mode9 exe when no specifi
cation has been made for the number of decimal places or significant digits.
The present status is not displayed, so it is necessary to perform the following
procedure to specify either display format:
I200HÜ
(NORM 1 mode)
(NORM 2 mode)
(All of the examples in this manual show calculation results using the NORM
1 mode.)
How to interpret exponential format
- — Exponent
Mantissa
-► 1.2x1011 -► 120,000,000,000
1.211 indicates that the result is equivalent to 1.2x1011. This means that you
should move the decimal point in 1.2 eleven places to the right, since the expo
nent is positive. This results in the value 120,000,000,000.
