Hello fellow TI-89 Users,
When I perform the calculation of 151870 * 1.E-12 I get .000002 and then once I highlight the .000002 I receive the correct value of 1.51875E-6. I was wondering if I could change a setting in the 89 so that I don't have to highlight on the value each time to receive the exact, correct, un-rounded answer. Thank you all for your help.

yes, and related is: MODE, "exact/approximate".. setting that to approximate made my life much better. i'm doing various engineering courses.
people should post on here more. studying 133hours a week its hard to learn to use these things well. and they are the difference between 3.0gpa engineering degree and a 3.99, IF your a master with it. |
