DECIMAL SETTING FUNCTION
<Example>
*1
The calculator has two settings for displaying a floating point number:
NORM1 (default setting)
and NORM
2
. In each display setting, a number is
automatically displayed in scientific notation outside a preset range:
• NORM
1: 0.000000001
<_
x <_
9999999999
• NORM
2: 0.01
<_
x <_
9999999999
Let’s compare the display result of
[
10000 8.1
=] in each display format.
