Supplementary 2 — effective digits
• In this calculator, all calculations are perform ed by using a num erical value whose mantissa is 12 digits or less. Calculation
results are displayed after they are subjected to decimal designation and rounding, b ut the calculator retains a num erical
value whose mantissa is 12 digits. However, the m axim um num ber of effective digits is 10 digits when a calculation result
obtained through the l ss | . or jM + j key is used in the follo w ing calculation.
• When a num erical value is inputted as a mantissa, only its upper 10 digits are effective, b u t the num ber o f in putte d digits is
retained. A numerical value smaller than 1 (or larger than — 1) is also retained w ith in 10 digits as m uch as possible.
Ex. 1234567898765 -> equal to 1.234567898 x 10 12
0.00000000001234 equal to 1.234 x 1 0"11
