Using mathematical functions
11-17
Symbolic functions
The symbolic functions are used for symbolic
manipulations of expressions. The variables can be
formal or numeric, but the result is usually in symbolic
form (not a number). You will find the symbols for the
symbolic functions = and | (
where
) in the CHARS menu
(
CHARS
) as well as the MATH menu.
= (
equals
)
Sets an equality for an equation. This is
not
a logical
operator and does
not
store values. (See “Test functions”
on page 11-18.)

expression2
ISOLATE
Isolates the first occurrence of
variable
in
expression=
0
and returns a new expression, where
variable=newexpression.
The result is a general solution
that represents multiple solutions by including the (formal)
variables
S1
to represent any sign and
n1
to represent
any integer.
ISOLATE(
expression
,
variable
)
Examples
ISOLATE(2*X+8,X)
returns
-4
ISOLATE(A+B*X/C,X)
returns
-(A*C/B)
LINEAR?
Tests whether
expression
is linear for the specified
variable
. Returns
0
(false) or
1
(true).
LINEAR?(
expression
,
variable
)
Example
LINEAR?((X^2-1)/(X+1),X)
returns
0
QUAD
Solves quadratic
expression=
0
for
variable
and returns
a new expression, where
variable=newexpression.
The
result is a general solution that represents both positive
and negative solutions by including the formal variable
S1
to represent any sign: + or – .
QUAD(
expression

)
Example
QUAD((X

-7,X)
returns
(2+s1*5.29150262213)/2
