See Calculation Methods Used by CALC 1 for an overview of calculation methods.

See Percentage Keys on how to use the Δ% and %T keys.

See Rectangular to Polar Keys for using the "→P" and "→R" keys.

See plot(x,y) example for plotting an expression using the "plot(x,y) key

See the solve(x,y) example for solving an expression using the "solve(x,y) key.

See Number Formatting Keys for using the fix(x), sd(x) frc(/x) and sd(0,12) formatting keys.

See Spell Out Key for spelling out values.

Note that some keys will be different for different calculation modes. For example, parenthesis key will only be displayed in CHN or ALG calculation mode.

Key Reference
