6. Calculation Range

1. Arithmetic calculation

The results for dividend, multiplicand and operand are:

-

100

or x = 0

(valid within the range of display capability)

Note:

Calculation results and input values less than 1

×

are

considered equal to 0.

2. Function calculation

Calculation accuracy

In principle, calculation errors are ±1 of the last digit. (In case of exponential
display, the calculation errors are ±1 of the last digit of the mantissa display.)

However, a calculation error increases in continuous calculations due to
accumulation of each calculation error. (This is the same for a

b

,

b

a

, n!,

e

x

, In, 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. (for example,
calculating sinh X or tanh X at X = 0)
