Getting Started42
Regardless of the current display format, each number is stored internally as a signed, 12-digit
number with a signed, three-digit exponent.
Specifying Displayed Decimal Places
To specify the number of displayed decimal places:
1. P r e s s \5 followed by :–d for the desired decimal setting.
2. \5 followed by 7, v, or s changes the display mode. Pressing
\7 provides the best estimate and displays as many digits as required. v is
the value for 10, and s for 11.
When a number is too large or too small to be displayed in DISP format, it automatically
displays in scientific notation.
Displaying the Full Precision of Numbers
To set your calculator to display numbers as precisely as possible, press \57
(trailing zeros are not displayed.) To temporarily view all 12 digits of the number in the display
(regardless of the current display format setting), press
\5 and hold 4. The number
is displayed as long as you continue holding 4. The decimal point is not shown.
