Inputting Expressions and Values

Basic Input Rules
Calculations can be input in the same form as they are written. When you
press = the priority sequence of the input calculation will be evaluated
automatically and the result will appear on the display.

4 × sin30 × (30 + 10 × 3) = 120

4 *s 30 )*( 30 + 10 * 3 )= Math

*1
2
* *3
*1 Input of the closing parenthesis is required for sin, sinh, and other functions
that include parentheses.
*2 These multiplication symbols (×) can be omitted. A multiplication symbol
can be omitted when it occurs immediately before an opening parenthesis,
immediately before sin or other function that includes parentheses,
immediately before the Ran# (random number) function, or immediately
before a variable (A, B, C, D, E, F, M, X, Y), scientific constants, π or e.
* The closing parenthesis immediately before the = operation can be
3

omitted.

Input example omitting **2 and )*3 operations in the above

example. Math

4 s 30 )( 30 + 10 * 3 =

Note: • If the calculation becomes longer than the screen width during
input, the screen will scroll automatically to the right and the ] indicator will
appear on the display. When this happens, you can scroll back to the left by
using d and e to move the cursor. • When Linear Display is selected,
pressing f will cause the cursor to jump to the beginning of the calculation,
while c will jump to the end. • When Natural Display is selected, pressing
e while the cursor is at the end of the input calculation will cause it to jump
to the beginning, while pressing d while the cursor is at the beginning will
cause it to jump to the end. • You can input up to 99 bytes for a calculation.
Each numeral, symbol, or function normally uses one byte. Some functions
require three to 13 bytes. • The cursor will change shape to k when there are
10 bytes or less of allowed input remaining. If this happens, end calculation
input and then press =.

Calculation Priority Sequence

The priority sequence of input calculations is evaluated in accordance with the
rules below. When the priority of two expressions is the same, the calculation
is performed from left to right.

E-7
 1st Parenthetical expressions

2nd Functions that require an argument to the right and a closing

parenthesis “)” following the argument.

3rd Functions that come after the input value (x2, x3, x–1, x!, °’ ”, °, r, g,
%, 't), powers (x^), roots (")
4th Fractions
Negative sign (–), base-n symbols (d, h, b, o)
Note: When squaring a negative value (such as –2), the value
being squared must be enclosed in parentheses ((- 2 )w
5th =). Since x2 has a higher priority than the negative sign,
inputting - 2 w= would result in the squaring of 2 and then
appending a negative sign to the result. Always keep the priority
sequence in mind, and enclose negative values in parentheses
when required.
Metric conversion commands (cm'in, etc.),
6th
STAT Mode estimated values (m, n, m1, m2)
7th Multiplication where the multiplication sign is omitted
Permutation (nPr), combination (nCr), complex number polar
8th
coordinate symbol (∠)
9th Dot product (·)
10th Multiplication, division (×, ÷)
11th Addition, subtraction (+, –)
12th Logical AND (and)
13th Logical OR, XOR, XNOR (or, xor, xnor)

Inputting with Natural Display

Selecting Natural Display makes it possible to input and display fractions and
certain functions (log, x2, x3, x^, ), #, ", x−1, 10^, e^, ∫ , d/dx, Σ, Abs) just
as they are written in your textbook.
2+'
2 B
1+'
2 Math

' 2 +! 2 ee 1 +! 2 =

Important: • Certain types of expressions can cause the height of a

calculation formula to be greater than one display line. The maximum
allowable height of a calculation formula is two display screens (31 dots × 2).
Further input will become impossible if the height of the calculation you are
inputting exceeds the allowable limit. • Nesting of functions and parentheses
is allowed. Further input will become impossible if you nest too many functions
and/or parentheses. If this happens, divide the calculation into multiple parts
and calculate each part separately.
Note: When you press = and obtain a calculation result using Natural
Display, part of the expression you input may be cut off. If you need to view
the entire input expression again, press A and then use d and e to
scroll the input expression.

E-8
Using Values and Expressions as Arguments
(Natural Display only)
A value or an expression that you have already input can be used as the
7
argument of a function. After you have input 6 , for example, you can make
it the argument of ', resulting in ' 7 .

dddd1Y(INS)

Math
!

As shown above, the value or expression to the right of the cursor after
1Y(INS) are pressed becomes the argument of the function that is
specified next. The range encompassed as the argument is everything up
to the first open parenthesis to the right, if there is one, or everything up to
the first function to the right (sin(30), log2(4), etc.)
This capability can be used with the following functions: ', &, 7,
17(F), 1&(8), 16("), 1l($), 1i(%), !,
6, 1!(#), 1w(Abs).

Overwrite Input Mode (Linear Display only)

You can select either insert or overwrite as the input mode, but only while
Linear Display is selected. In the overwrite mode, text you input replaces the
text at the current cursor location. You can toggle between the insert and
overwrite modes by performing the operations: 1Y(INS). The cursor
appears as “I” in the insert mode and as “ ” in the overwrite mode.
Note: Natural Display always uses the insert mode, so changing display
format from Linear Display to Natural Display will automatically switch to
the insert mode.

Correcting and Clearing an Expression

To delete a single character or function: Move the cursor so it is directly to
the right of the character or function you want to delete, and then press Y.
In the overwrite mode, move the cursor so it is directly under the character
or function you want to delete, and then press Y.
To insert a character or function into a calculation: Use d and e to
move the cursor to the location where you want to insert the character or
function and then input it. Be sure always to use the insert mode if Linear
Display is selected.
To clear all of the calculation you are inputting: Press A.

Toggling Calculation Results

While Natural Display is selected, each press of f will toggle the currently
displayed calculation result between its fraction form and decimal form, its
' form and decimal form, or its π form and decimal form.

E-9
 π ÷ 6 = 1 π = 0.5235987756 B

6 + 2'
3 = 5.913591358 B
(! 2 e+ 2 )*! 3 = ' 3 f
6 + 2' 5.913591358

While Linear Display is selected, each press of f will toggle the currently
displayed calculation result between its decimal form and fraction form.

1 ÷ 5 = 0.2 = 1 b
5
1/5= 0.2 f 1{5

1 – 4 = 1 = 0.2 b
5 5
1-4'5= 1{5 f 0.2

Important: • Depending on the type of calculation result that is on the display

when you press the f key, the conversion process may take some time to
perform. • With certain calculation results, pressing the f key will not convert
the displayed value. • You cannot switch from decimal form to mixed fraction
form if the total number of digits used in the mixed fraction (including integer,
numerator, denominator, and separator symbols) is greater than 10.
Note: With Natural Display (MathO), pressing 1= instead of = after
inputting a calculation will display the calculation result in decimal form.
Pressing f after that will switch to the fraction form or π form of the
calculation result. The ' form of the result will not appear in this case.

Note: • Mixing fractions and decimal values in a calculation while Linear
Display is selected will cause the result to be displayed as a decimal value.
• Fractions in calculation results are displayed after being reduced to their
lowest terms.
To switch a calculation result between improper fraction and mixed
fraction form: Perform the following key operation: 1f(<)

E-10
To switch a calculation result between fraction and decimal form:
Press f.

Percent Calculations
Inputting a value and pressing 1((%) causes the input value to become
a percent.

150 × 20% = 30 150 * 20 1((%)= 30

Calculate what percentage of 880 is 660. (75%)
660 / 880 1((%)= 75
Increase 2500 by 15%. (2875)
2500 + 2500 * 15 1((%)= 2875
Discount 3500 by 25%. (2625)
3500 - 3500 * 25 1((%)= 2625

Degree, Minute, Second (Sexagesimal) Calculations

Performing an addition or subtraction operation between sexagesimal values,
or a multiplication or division operation between a sexagesimal value and a
decimal value will cause the result to be displayed as a sexagesimal value.
You also can convert between sexagesimal and decimal. The following
is the input format for a sexagesimal value: {degrees} $ {minutes} $
{seconds} $.
Note: You must always input something for the degrees and minutes, even
if they are zero.

2°20´30˝ + 39´30˝ = 3°00´00˝

2 $ 20 $ 30 $+ 0 $ 39 $ 30 $= 3°0´0˝
Convert 2°15´18˝ to its decimal equivalent.
2 $ 15 $ 18 $= 2°15´18˝
(Converts sexagesimal to decimal.) $ 2.255
(Converts decimal to sexagesimal.) $ 2°15´18˝

Multi-Statements
You can use the colon character (:) to connect two or more expressions and
execute them in sequence from left to right when you press =.

3+3:3×3 3 + 3 S7(:) 3 * 3 = 6
= 9

Using Engineering Notation

A simple key operation transforms a displayed value to engineering
notation.

Transform the value 1234 to engineering notation, shifting the

decimal point to the right.
1234 = 1234
W 1.234×103

point to the left.
123 = 123
1W(←) 0.123×103
1W(←) 0.000123×106

Calculation History
In the COMP, CMPLX, or BASE-N Mode, the calculator remembers up to
approximately 200 bytes of data for the newest calculation. You can scroll
through calculation history contents using f and c.

1+1=2 1+1= 2
2+2=4 2+2= 4
3+3=6 3+3= 6
(Scrolls back.) f 4
(Scrolls back again.) f 2
Note: Calculation history data is all cleared whenever you press O, when
you change to a different calculation mode, when you change the display
format, or whenever you perform any reset operation.

Replay
While a calculation result is on the display, you can press d or e to edit
the expression you used for the previous calculation.

4 × 3 + 2.5 = 14.5 b 4 * 3 + 2.5 = 14.5

4 × 3 − 7.1 = 4.9 (Continuing) dYYYY- 7.1 = 4.9
Note: If you want to edit a calculation when the ' indicator is on the right
side of a calculation result display (see “Reading the Display”), press A
and then use d and e to scroll the calculation.

a random integer within the range of a to b. See 15 .
nPr, nCr : Permutation (nPr) and combination (nCr) functions. See 16 .
Rnd : The argument of this function is made a decimal value and then rounded
in accordance with the current number of display digits setting (Norm, Fix, or
Sci). With Norm 1 or Norm 2, the argument is rounded off to 10 digits. With
Fix and Sci, the argument is rounded off to the specified digit. When Fix 3
is the display digits setting, for example, the result of 10 ÷ 3 is displayed
as 3.333, while the calculator maintains a value of 3.33333333333333 (15
digits) internally for calculation. In the case of Rnd(10÷3) = 3.333 (with Fix
3), both the displayed value and the calculator’s internal value become
3.333. Because of this a series of calculations will produce different results
depending on whether Rnd is used (Rnd(10÷3) × 3 = 9.999) or not used (10
÷ 3 × 3 = 10.000). See 17 .
Note: Using functions can slow down a calculation, which may delay display
of the result. Do not perform any subsequent operation while waiting for the
calculation result to appear. To interrupt an ongoing calculation before its
result appears, press A.

Integration and Differential Calculation Precautions

• Integration and differential calculations can be performed in the COMP
Mode (,1) only.
• The following cannot be used in f(x), a, b, or tol: Pol, Rec, ∫, d/dx, Σ.
• When using a trigonometric function in f(x), specify Rad as the angle
unit.
• A smaller tol value increases precision, but it also increases calculation
time. When specifying tol, use value that is 1 × 10–14 or greater.
Precautions for Integration Calculation Only
• Integration normally requires considerable time to perform.
• For f(x)  0 where a  x b (as in the case of ∫0 3x2 – 2 = –1), calculation
1

will produce a negative result.

• Depending on the content of f(x) and the region of integration, calculation
error that exceeds the tolerance may be generated, causing the calculator
to display an error message.
Precautions for Differential Calculation Only
• If convergence to a solution cannot be found when tol input is omitted, the
tol value will be adjusted automatically to determine the solution.
• Non-consecutive points, abrupt fluctuation, extremely large or small points,
inflection points, and the inclusion of points that cannot be differentiated,
or a differential point or differential calculation result that approaches zero
can cause poor precision or error.

Complex Number Calculations

(CMPLX)
To perform complex number calculations, first press N2(CMPLX) to
enter the CMPLX Mode. You can use either rectangular coordinates (a+bi)
or polar coordinates (r∠) to input complex numbers. Complex number
calculation results are displayed in accordance with the complex number
format setting on the setup menu.
(2 + 6i) ÷ (2i) = 3 – i (Complex number format: a + bi)
( 2 + 6 W(i))/( 2 W(i))= 3–i
2 ∠ 45 = ' 2 i Bv (Complex number format: a + bi)

Note: • If you are planning to perform input and display of the calculation
result in polar coordinate format, specify the angle unit before starting the
calculation. • The  value of the calculation result is displayed in the range
of –180°    180°. • Display of the calculation result while Linear Display
is selected will show a and bi (or r and ) on separate lines.

Using CALC
CALC lets you save calculation expressions that contain variables, which you
can then recall and execute in the COMP Mode (N1) and the CMPLX
Mode (N2). The following describes the types of expressions you can
save with CALC.
• Expressions: 2X + 3Y, 2AX + 3BY + C, A + Bi
• Multi-statements: X + Y : X (X + Y)
• Equalities with a single variable on the left and an expression including
variables on the right: A = B + C, Y = X2 + X + 3
(Use Ss(=) to input the equals sign of the equality.)

Using SOLVE
SOLVE uses Newton’s Law to approximate the solution of equations. Note
that SOLVE can be used in the COMP Mode (N1) only.
The following describes the types of equations whose solutions can be
obtained using SOLVE.
• Equations that include variable X: X2 + 2X – 2, Y = X + 5, X = sin(M), X
+3=B+C
SOLVE solves for X. An expression like X2 + 2X – 2 is treated as X2 + 2X
– 2 = 0.
• Equations input using the following syntax: {equation}, {solution
variable}
SOLVE solves for Y, for example, when an equation is input as: Y = X + 5,
Y
Important: • If an equation contains input functions that include an open
parenthesis (such as sin and log), do not omit the closing parenthesis.
• The following functions are not allowed inside of an equation: ∫, d/dx, Σ,
Pol, Rec.

Important: • Depending on what you input for the initial value for X (solution
variable), SOLVE may not be able to obtain solutions. If this happens, try
changing the initial value so they are closer to the solution. • SOLVE may not
be able to determine the correct solution, even when one exists. • SOLVE
uses Newton’s Law, so even if there are multiple solutions, only one of them
will be returned. • Due to limitations in Newton’s Law, solutions tend to be
difficult to obtain for equations like the following: y = sin(x), y = ex, y = '
x.

Logical and Negation Operations

Your calculator provides you with logical operators (and, or, xor, xnor) and
functions (Not, Neg) for logical and negation operations on binary values.
Use the menu that appears when you press 13(BASE) to input these
logical operators and functions.
All of the following examples are performed in the binary mode (l(BIN)).

To determine the logical AND of 10102 and 11002 (10102 and 11002)
A 1010 13(BASE)1(and) 1100 = 0000000000001000

To determine the logical OR of 10112 and 110102 (10112 or 110102)

A 1011 13(BASE)2(or) 11010 = 0000000000011011

To determine the logical XOR of 10102 and 11002 (10102 xor 11002)
A 1010 13(BASE)3(xor) 1100 = 0000000000000110

To determine the logical XNOR of 11112 and 1012 (11112 xnor 1012)
A 1111 13(BASE)4(xnor) 101 = 1111111111110101

E-27
 To determine the bitwise complement of 10102 (Not(10102))
A13(BASE)5(Not) 1010 )= 1111111111110101

To negate (take the two’s complement) of 1011012 (Neg(1011012))

A13(BASE)6(Neg) 101101 )= 1111111111010011
Note: In the case of a negative binary, octal or hexadecimal value, the
calculator converts the value to binary, takes the two’s complement, and
then converts back to the original number base. For decimal (base-10)
values, the calculator merely adds a minus sign.

calculation, which can cause accumulation of errors that occur with each
calculation.
• Error is cumulative and tends to be large in the vicinity of a function’s singular
point and inflection point.
• The range for calculation results that can be displayed in π form when using
Natural Display is |x|  106. Note, however, that internal calculation error
can make it impossible to display some calculation results in π form. It also
can cause calculation results that should be in decimal form to appear in
π form.

 Errors
The calculator will display an error message whenever an error occurs for
any reason during a calculation. There are two ways to exit an error message
display: Pressing d or e to display the location of the error, or pressing
A to clear the message and calculation.

Displaying the Location of an Error

While an error message is displayed, press d or e to return to the
calculation screen. The cursor will be positioned at the location where
the error occurred, ready for input. Make the necessary corrections to the
calculation and execute it again.

Clearing the Error Message

While an error message is displayed, press A to return to the calculation
screen. Note that this also clears the calculation that contained the error.

Error Messages
Math ERROR
Cause: • The intermediate or final result of the calculation you are performing
exceeds the allowable calculation range. • Your input exceeds the allowable
input range (particularly when using functions). • The calculation you are
performing contains an illegal mathematical operation (such as division
by zero).
Action: • Check the input values, reduce the number of digits, and try again.
• When using independent memory or a variable as the argument of a function,
make sure that the memory or variable value is within the allowable range
for the function.
Stack ERROR
Cause: • The calculation you are performing has caused the capacity of
the numeric stack or the command stack to be exceeded. • The calculation
you are performing has caused the capacity of the matrix or vector stack
to be exceeded.
Action: • Simplify the calculation expression so it does not exceed the
capacity of the stack. • Try splitting the calculation into two or more parts.
Syntax ERROR
Cause: There is a problem with the format of the calculation you are
performing.
E-40
Action: Make necessary corrections.
Argument ERROR
Cause: There is a problem with the argument of the calculation you are
performing.
Action: Make necessary corrections.
Dimension ERROR (MATRIX and VECTOR Modes only)
Cause: • The matrix or vector you are trying to use in a calculation was input
without specifying its dimension. • You are trying to perform a calculation with
matrices or vectors whose dimensions do not allow that type of calculation.
Action: • Specify the dimension of the matrix or vector and then perform
the calculation again. • Check the dimensions specified for the matrices or
vectors to see if they are compatible with the calculation.
Variable ERROR (SOLVE feature only)
Cause: • You did not specify a solution variable, and there is no X variable
in the equation you input. • The solution variable that you specified is not
included in the equation you input.
Action: • The equation you input must include an X variable when you do
not specify the solution variable. • Specify a variable that is included in the
equation you input as the solution variable.
Can’t Solve Error (SOLVE feature only)
Cause: The calculator could not obtain a solution.
Action: • Check for errors in the equation that you input. • Input a value
for the solution variable that is close to the expected solution and try again.
Insufficient MEM Error
Cause: The configuration of TABLE Mode parameters caused more than
30 X-values to be generated for a table.
Action: Narrow the table calculation range by changing the Start, End, and
Step values, and try again.
Time Out Error
Cause: The current differential or integration calculation ends without the
ending condition being fulfilled.
Action: Try increasing the tol value. Note that this also decreases solution
precision.

Before Assuming Malfunction of the

Calculator...
Perform the following steps whenever an error occurs during a calculation
or when calculation results are not what you expected. If one step does not
correct the problem, move on to the next step.
Note that you should make separate copies of important data before
performing these steps.
1. Check the calculation expression to make sure that it does not contain any
errors.
2. Make sure that you are using the correct mode for the type of calculation
you are trying to perform.
3. If the above steps do not correct your problem, press the O key. This will
cause the calculator to perform a routine that checks whether calculation
functions are operating correctly. If the calculator discovers any abnormality,
it automatically initializes the calculation mode and clears memory contents.
E-41
 For details about initialized settings, see “Configuring the Calculator
Setup”.
4. Initialize all modes and settings by performing the following operation:
19(CLR)1(Setup)=(Yes).

Replacing the Battery

A low battery is indicated by a dim display, even if contrast is adjusted, or by
failure of figures to appear on the display immediately after you turn on the
calculator. If this happens, replace the battery with a new one.
Important: Removing the battery will cause all of the calculator’s memory
contents to be deleted.
1. Press 1A(OFF) to turn off the calculator.
• To ensure that you do not accidentally turn on power while replacing the
battery, slide the hard case onto the front of the calculator (fx-991ES
PLUS).
2. Remove the cover as shown in the illustration and replace the battery,
taking care that its plus (+) and minus (–) ends are facing correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions

k How can I perform input and display results the same way I did on a
model that does not have Natural Textbook Display?
Perform the following key operation: 1N(SETUP)2(LineIO). See
“Configuring the Calculator Setup” on page E-5 for more information.
k How can I change a fraction form result to decimal form?
How can I change a fraction form result produced by a division
operation to decimal form?
See “Toggling Calculation Results” on page E-9 for the procedure.
k What is the difference between Ans memory, independent memory,
and variable memory?
Each of these types of memory acts like “containers” for temporary storage
of a single value.
Ans Memory: Stores the result of the last calculation performed. Use this
memory to carry the result of one calculation on to the next.
Independent Memory: Use this memory to totalize the results of multiple
calculations.
Variables: This memory is helpful when you need to uses the same value
multiple times in one or more calculations.
k What is the key operation to take me from the STAT Mode or TABLE
Mode to a mode where I can perform arithmetic calculations?
Press N1(COMP).
k How can I return the calculator to its initial default settings?
Perform the following operation: 19(CLR)1(Setup)=(Yes)
k When I execute a function calculation, why do I get a calculation result
that is completely different from older CASIO calculator models?
With a Natural Textbook Display model, the argument of a function that
uses parentheses must be followed by a closing parenthesis. Failing to
press ) after the argument to close the parentheses may cause unwanted
values or expressions to be included as part of the argument.

Example: (sin 30) + 15 v

Older (S-VPAM) Model: s 30 + 15 = 15.5
Natural Textbook Display Model: b s 30 )+ 15 = 15.5
Failure to press ) here as shown below will result in calculation of sin 45.
s 30 + 15 = 0.7071067812
