Units and Conversions
Entry and display of special formats:
Feet-inches-fraction (e.g., 24' 7-3/16")
Inches-fraction (e.g., 287-5/8")
Degrees-minutes-seconds (e.g., 52.9.8)
Hours-minutes-seconds (e.g., 5:21:50)
Minutes-seconds (e.g., 125:32)
Fractions (e.g., 14-9/125, 32-1/2 kg)
Binary, octal, and hexidecimal (e.g., 101101, 55, 2D)
User-selectable inch fraction denominator (2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, or 1000)
Converts among and computes with over 200 different units (ft, m, lb, yd3, etc.), including both English/Imperial and SI/Metric units
Computes directly with dimensional values (e.g., 70 lb/ft3 x 5 yd3= 9450 lb)
Supports and converts among multiple bases: decimal (i.e., standard base 10), binary, octal, and hexidecimal
Currency conversions with update of exchange rates over the Internet. Supports 12 currencies.
Keypads and Entry Logic
Algebraic and RPN entry modes (user selectable)
Allows entry of feet-inches-fractions using the decimal key. For example, to enter 4' 3-21/32", you would press [4] [.] [3] [.] [2] [1]
Allows entry of any denominator (after entering numerator, just press [.] to enter a new denominator)
Dedicated buttons for picking the units that you use most often (you can assign the units that you want to these buttons)
Mini-keypad for easy entry when working with Solvers
Chemical element data shown in the periodic chart and listed in various groupings. Detailed data for each element includes:
Name
Symbol
Atomic number
Group
State at atmospheric conditions
Electron configuration
Atomic weight
Boiling point temperature
Melting point temperature
Density
Physical constants(over 300) listed alphabetically or in one of several groups
Recent list showing reference values that you recently used (recalled)
Display Options
Choice of display precision, including fixed decimal places or significant figures
Option to reduce inch fractions to the least common denominator or leave them unreduced (e.g., 1/2" vs 16/32")
Option to show or not show a zero before inch fractions (e.g., 5' 0-3/4" vs 5' 3/4")
Additional Features
"Paperless tape" that keeps your last 20 entries (you can also recall tape values to the main display)
Memory with 10 locations - all support store, recall, add (M+), and subtract (M-)
Easy input and editing, including backspace and ability to click the main display value to re-enter edit mode
Ability to print and/or save Solver results (Windows version only)
Automatically stores display, stack, tape, memory, and solver values when the software shuts down and restores these values when you restart the calculator
