Getting Started
In MathPrint™ mode, exponentiation using the
G
key is evaluated from right to left. The expression
2^3^2 is evaluated as 2^(3^2), with a result of
512.
The calculator evaluates expressions entered with
F
and
a
from left to right in both Classic and
MathPrint™ modes. Pressing

F F
is
calculated as (3

only valid in the Home Screen. They are ignored in wizards, function table display and
data editor features where the expression result, if valid, will display without a
conversion. Editors such as in matrix, vector and system solver will also ignore these
end of expression operators in the edit line.
Note:
Use brackets to clearly indicate the operation order you expect for your
expression entry. If necessary, the brackets can be used to override the order of
operations followed by the algorithms in the calculator. If the result is not as expected,
check how the expression was entered and add brackets as needed.
