Operation
Entry Format
Explanation
Screen
1:exact exact(expression1)
exact(list1)
exact(matrix1)
exact({exp1,exp2...}) 		Uses Exact Mode and
overrides the set mode.
2:abs abs(expression1)
abs(list1)
abs(matrix1)
abs({exp1,exp2...})

Returns the absolute
value of the argument.
If a variable has an assigned
value, that is the value used.
3:round round(expression1 [,digits]) Returns the argument rounded
to the specified number
of digits after the decimal point.
Digits is an integer 0-12.
Default is 12.
4:iPart ipart(expression1)
ipart(list1)
ipart(matrix1)
ipart({exp1,exp2...}) 		Returns the integer part
of the argument.
5:fPart fpart(expression1)
fpart(list1)
fpart(matrix1)
fpart({exp1,exp2...}) 		Returns the fractional part
of the argument.
6:floor floor(expression)
floor(list1)
floor(matrix)
floor({exp1,exp2...}) 		This is identical to the greatest
integer function. Returns the
greatest integer less than or
equal to the expression.
7:ceiling ceiling(expression)
ceiling(list1)
ceiling(matrix)
ceiling({exp1,exp2...}) 		Returns the nearest integer
that is greater than or equal
to the argument.
8:sign sign(expression)
sign(list1)
sign(matrix)
sign({exp1,exp2...})

Returns 1 if the expression is
positive. Returns -1 if it
is negative.
9:mod mod(expression1,expression2)
mod(list1,list2)
mod(matrix1,matrix)

Returns the first argument
modulo the second argument
as defined by:
A:remain remain(expression1,expression2)
remain (list1,list2)
remain(matrix1,matrix) 		Returns the remainder of the
first argument modulo the second
argument as defined by:
B:lcm lcm(number1,number2)
lcm(list1,list2)
lcm(matrix1,matrix) 		Returns the least common multiple
of the two arguments.
C:gcd gcd(number1,number2)
gcd(list1,list2)
gcd(matrix1,matrix) 		Returns the greatest common
divisor of the two arguments.
