Calculation Priority Sequence

Your ClassPad automatically performs calculations in the following sequence.

1 Commands with parentheses (sin(, diff(, etc.)

2 Factorials (

x

!), degree specifications (

o

,

r

), percents (%)

3 Powers

4

π, memory, and variable multiplication operations that omit the multiplication sign (2π, 5A,
etc.)

Command with parentheses multiplication operations that omit the multiplication sign (2 3,
etc.)
Ч , ч

5 +, –, (–)

6 Relational operators (=,

≠, <, >, <, >)

7 and

8 or, xor

9 with ( | )

Example: 2 + 3

× (log (sin(2π

2

)) + 6.8) = 22.07101691 (In Algebra mode, Decimal mode,

Radian mode.)

Tip

• Expressions in parentheses are given priority.

• In cases where a series of calculations in the same expression includes more than one of the

operators 4 through 9 that are the same priority sequence level, the same level operations are
performed from left to right. A series of power calculations 3 (example: 5^2^3) is performed from
right to left (5^(2^3)).
