Binary, Pental, Octal, Decimal, and Hexadecimal
Operations (N-base)
14
Conversions can be performed between N-base numbers in
NORMAL mode. The four basic arithmetic operations, calculations
with parentheses, and memory calculations can also be performed,
along with the logical operations AND, OR, NOT, NEG, XOR, and
XNOR on binary, pental, octal, and hexadecimal numbers.

.
In the binary, pental, octal, and hexadecimal systems, fractional
parts cannot be entered. When a decimal number having
a fractional part is converted into a binary, pental, octal, or
hexadecimal number, the fractional part will be truncated.
Likewise, when the result of a binary, pental, octal, or hexadecimal
calculation includes a fractional part, the fractional part will be
truncated. In the binary, pental, octal, and hexadecimal systems,
negative numbers are displayed as a complement.
Time, Decimal, and Sexagesimal Calculations
15
Conversion between decimal and sexagesimal numbers can be
performed. In addition, the four basic arithmetic operations and
memory calculations can be performed using the sexagesimal
system. Notation for sexagesimal is as follows:
Coordinate Conversions
16
• Before performing a calculation, select the angular unit.
• The results of coordinate conversions will be displayed as
decimal numbers even in the WriteView editor.
Rectangular coord.
Polar coord.
Modify Function
17
Decimal calculation results are internally obtained in scientific
notation, with up to 14 digits in the mantissa. However, since
calculation results are displayed in the form designated by the
display notation and the number of decimal places indicated, the
internal calculation result may differ from that shown in the display.
By using the modify function (
@
n
), the internal value is
converted to match that of the display, so that the displayed value
can be used without change in subsequent operations.
• When using the WriteView editor, if the calculation result is
displayed using fractions or irrational numbers, press
U
to
convert it to decimal form first.

Calculation Ranges
24
•
Within the ranges specified, this calculator is accurate to
±
1
of the 10th digit of the mantissa. However, a calculation error
increases in continuous calculations due to accumulation of
each calculation error. (This is the same for
y
x
,
x
r
, n!, e
x
, ln,
etc., where continuous calculations are performed internally.)
Additionally, a calculation error will accumulate and become larger
in the vicinity of inflection points and singular points of functions.
• Calculation ranges
±
10
−
99
to
±
9.999999999
×
10
99
and 0.
If the absolute value of an entry or a final or intermediate result
of a calculation is less than 10
−
99
, the value is considered to be 0
in calculations and in the display.
Display of results using
r
(when EXACT is selected)
Calculation results may be displayed using
