Modes q Use q to choose modes. Press $ # ! " to choose a mode, and < to select it. Press - or %s to return to the Home screen and perform your work using the chosen mode settings. Default settings are shown. DEG RAD Sets the angle mode to degrees or radians. NORM SCI Sets the numeric notation mode. Numeric notation modes affect only the display of results, and not the accuracy of the values stored in the unit, which remain maximal. NORM displays results with digits to the left and right of the decimal, as in 123456.78. SCI expresses numbers with one digit to the left of the decimal and the appropriate power of 10, as in 1.2345678x105 (which is the same as 123456.78). Note: C is a shortcut key to enter a number in scientific notation format. The result displays in the numeric notation format set in mode. Note: In some restricted environments (for example, data editor and the %h menu), the TI-34 MultiView™ calculator may display E instead of x10n. FLOAT 0123456789 Sets the decimal notation mode. FLOAT (floating decimal point) displays up to 10 digits, plus the sign and decimal. 0123456789 (fixed decimal point) specifies the number of digits (0 through 9) to display to the right of the decimal. CLASSIC MATHPRINT CLASSIC mode displays inputs and outputs in a single line. 5
