Logarithm and exponential functions
D
C
(multi-tap keys)
D
yields the logarithm of a number to the base e
(
e
2.718281828459).
DD
yields the common logarithm of a number.
C
raises
e
to the power you specify.
CC
raises 10 to the power you specify.
Examples
Numeric derivative
%A
%A
calculates an approximate derivative of
expression
with respect to
variable
, given the
value
at
which to calculate the derivative and
H
(if not specified, the
default is 1
