Reading the Display The display of the calculator shows expressions you input, calculation results, and various indicators. Input expression Indicators Math Math Math Math Calculation result • If a ' indicator appears on the right side of the calculation result, it means the displayed calculation result continues to the right.
The display currently shows an intermediate result of a Disp multi-statement calculation. Important: For some type of calculation that takes a long time to execute, the display may show only the above indicators (without any value) while it performs the calculation internally. Using Menus Some of the calculator’s operations are performed using menus.

Answer Memory (Ans)/Previous Answer Memory (PreAns) The last calculation result obtained is stored in Ans (answer) memory. The calculation result obtained prior to the last one is stored in PreAns (previous answer) memory. Displaying the result of a new calculation will move current Ans memory contents to PreAns memory and store the new calculation results in Ans memory.
Variables (A, B, C, D, E, F, X, Y) Your calculator has eight preset variables named A, B, C, D, E, F, X, and Y. You can assign values to variables and also use the variables in calculations.

! : Factorial function. See Abs : Absolute value function. Note that the input method is different depending upon whether you are using Natural Display or Linear Display. Ran# : Generates a 3-digit pseudo random number that is less than 1. The result is displayed as a fraction when Natural Display is selected.

Calculating Estimated Values Based on the regression formula obtained by paired-variable statistical calculation, the estimated value of can be calculated for a given -value. The corresponding -value (two values, , in the case of quadratic regression) also can be calculated for a value of in the regression formula.

The initial default number mode when you enter the BASE-N Mode is decimal, which means input and calculation results use the decimal number format.

Positive: 00000000 7FFFFFFF Hexadecimal Negative: 80000000 FFFFFFFF Specifying the Number Mode of a Particular Input Value You can input a special command immediately following a value to specify the number mode of that value. The special commands are: d (decimal), h (hexadecimal), b (binary), and o (octal).

To copy vector variable (or VctAns) contents: 1. Use the Vector Editor to display the vector you want to copy. • If you want to copy VctA, for example, perform the following key operation: 15(VECTOR)2(Data)1(VctA). • If you want to copy VctAns contents, perform the following to display the VctAns screen: A15(VECTOR)6(VctAns)=.
(DVctA)D VctB))= 1c(cos –1 )G)= Metric Conversion The calculator’s built-in metric conversion commands make it simple to convert values from one unit to another. You can use the metric conversion commands in any calculation mode except for BASE-N. To input a metric conversion command into a calculation, press 18(CONV) and then input the two-digit number that corresponds to the command you want.

When I execute a function calculation, why do I get a calculation result that is completely different from older CASIO calculator models? With a Natural Textbook Display model, the argument of a function that uses parentheses must be followed by a closing parenthesis. Failing to press ) after the argument to close the parentheses may cause unwanted values or expressions to be included as part of the argument.
