isClkOn() CATALOG
isClkOn() ⇒
true,false
Determines if the clock is
ON
or
OFF
. Returns
true
if the clock is
ON
. Returns
false
if the clock is
OFF
.
isPrime() MATH/Test menu
isPrime(
number
) ⇒
Boolean constant expression
Returns true or false to indicate if
number
is a whole
number
‚
2 that is evenly divisible only by itself and
1.
If
number
exceeds about 306 digits and has no
factors
c
1021,
isPrime(
number
)
displays an error
message.
If you merely want to determine if
number
is prime,
use
isPrime()
instead of
factor()
. It is much faster,
particularly if
number
is not prime and has a second-
largest factor that exceeds about five digits.
IsPrime(5) ¸ true
IsPrime(6) ¸ false
Function to find the next prime after a specified
number:
Define nextPrim(n)=Func:Loop:
n+1! n:if isPrime(n):return n:
EndLoop:EndFunc ¸ Done
nextPrim(7) ¸ 11

labelName
Defines a label with the name

in the
program.
You can use a
Goto
labelName
instruction to
transfer program control to the instruction
immediately following the label.

lcm() MATH/Number menu
lcm(
number1
,
number2
) ⇒
expression
lcm(
list1
,
list2
) ⇒
list
lcm(
matrix1
,
matrix2
) ⇒
matrix
Returns the least common multiple of the two
arguments. The
lcm
of two fractions is the
lcm
of
their numerators divided by the
gcd
of their
denominators. The
lcm
of fractional floating-point
numbers is their product.
For two lists or matrices, returns the least common
multiples of the corresponding elements.
