Accuracy Indicators
The accuracy of a displayed fraction is indicated by the  and  annunciators at
the right of the display. The calculator compares the value of the fractional part of
the internal 12–digit number with the value of the displayed fraction:
 If no indicator is lit, the fractional part of the internal 12–digit value exactly
matches the value of the displayed fraction.
 If  is lit, the fractional part of the internal 12–digit value is slightly less than
the displayed fraction — the exact numerator is no more than 0.5 below the
displayed numerator.
 If  is lit, the fractional part of the internal 12–digit value is slightly greater
than the displayed fraction — the exact numerator is no more than 0.5 above
the displayed numerator.
This diagram shows how the displayed fraction relates to nearby values — 
means the exact numerator is "a little above" the displayed numerator, and 
means the exact numerator is "a little below".
