Setting Decimal Mark Options (Continued) Engineering. Displays result with an exponent that is a multiple of 3, and the specified number of significant digits beyond the first one. Example: 123.456E7 becomes 1.23E9 in Engineering 2 format. Fraction. Displays results as fractions based on the specified number of decimal places. Examples: 123.456789 becomes 123 in Fraction 2 format, and .333 becomes 1/3 and 0.142857 becomes 1/7. See "Using fractions" on page 1-25. Mixed Fraction. Displays results as mixed fractions based on the specified number of decimal places. A mixed fraction has an integer part and a fractional part. Examples: 123.456789 becomes 123+16/35 in Fraction 2 format, and 7÷ 3 returns 2+1/3. See "Using fractions" on page 1-25. Dot or Comma. Displays a number as 12456.98 (Dot mode) or as 12456,98 (Comma mode). Dot mode uses commas to separate elements in lists and matrices, and to separate function arguments. Comma mode uses periods (dot) as separators in these contexts. Setting a mode This example demonstrates how to change the angle measure from the default mode, radians, to degrees for the current aplet. The procedure is the same for changing number format and decimal mark modes. 1. Press form. MODES to open the HOME MODES input Getting started 1-11
