The
MATH menu is divided up into sections by mathematical topics. These topics are:
Real
- rounding, roots, some conversions and percentage functions.
Stat-Two - bivariate statistical functions.
Symbolic
- functions for manipulating equations and symbols.
Tests - used in programming more than normal work.
Trig
- contains the trig functions not found on the keyboard. E.g. sec, cosec.
Calculus - integration and differentiation
Complex
- functions to manipulate complex numbers.
Constants - e, i and various others. Of more use in programming.
Convert
- contains a list of functions allowing conversion of units.
Hyperb. - the hyperbolic trig functions.
List
- allows manipulation & creation of lists of numbers, including stats data.
Loop - iterative functions.
Matrix
- a rich collection of functions to manipulate matrices.
Polynom. - another rich collection, this time to manipulate polynomials.
Prob. - functions used in probability calculations.
Some of these functions have little application at school level and will not be covered here. Others will be
covered to varying depths. Anyone needing those not covered will find them in the manual that comes with
the calculator.
