For convenience, prefix–type functions, which require one or two arguments,
display a left parenthesis when you enter them.
The prefix functions that require two arguments are %CHG, RND, XROOT, ^,
INTG, RMDR, Cn,r and Pn,r. Separate the two arguments with a colon.
In an equation, the XROOT function takes its arguments in the opposite order from
RPN usage. For example, –8
Ï
3
'
to is equivalent to

.
All other two–argument functions take their arguments in the Y, X order used for
RPN. For example, 28
Ï
4
¹ x
is equivalent to

.
For two–argument functions, be careful if the second argument is negative. The
second argument must not start with "subtraction" (
Ã
). For a number, use
z
.
For a variable, use parentheses and
Ã
. These are valid equations:
