Features











































Units and Conversions



  • Entry and display of special formats:


    • Feet-inches-fraction (e.g., 24' 7-3/16")

    • Inches-fraction (e.g., 287-5/8")

    • Degrees-minutes-seconds (e.g., 52.9.8)

    • Hours-minutes-seconds (e.g., 5:21:50)

    • Minutes-seconds (e.g., 125:32)

    • Fractions (e.g., 14-9/125, 32-1/2 kg)


  • User-selectable inch fraction denominator (2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, or 1000)

  • Converts among and computes with over 200 different units (ft, m, lb, yd3,
    etc.), including both English/Imperial and SI/Metric units

  • Computes directly with dimensional values (e.g., 70 lb/ft3 x 5 yd3
    = 9450 lb)

  • Currency conversions with update of exchange rates over the Internet. Supports
    12 currencies.


Keypads and Entry Logic



  • Algebraic and RPN entry modes (user selectable)

  • Allows entry of feet-inches-fractions using the decimal key. For example, to

  • Allows entry of any denominator (after entering numerator, just press [.] to
    enter a new denominator)

  • Dedicated buttons for picking the units that you use most often (you can assign
    the units that you want to these buttons)

  • Mini-keypad for easy entry when working with Solvers


Advanced Math Functions



  • Triginometric - sin, cos, tan, asin, acos, atan

  • Logarithmic - log, ln, 10x, ex

  • Power - x2, square root, yx

  • Hyperbolic - sinh, cosh, tanh, asinh, acosh, atanh

  • Bessel functions - J0, J1, Y0, Y1,
    I0, I1, K0, K1

  • Gamma function

  • Error function

  • Factorial

  • Random number


Automatic Solvers



  • Circle

  • Circle - Segmented Fall

  • Circle - Segmented Rise

  • Cone

  • Cube

  • Cylinder

  • Rafters

  • Rectangular Box

  • Sphere

  • Stairs

  • Triangle - Oblique

  • Triangle - Right

  • Triangle - Segmented Fall

  • Triangle - Segmented Rise


Project Estimators



  • Blocks

  • Board/trim

  • Bricks

  • Concrete

  • Mulch

  • General Units by Area

  • General Units by Length

  • General Units by Length & Width

  • General Units by Volume

  • Paint

  • Plywood

  • Primer

  • Rock/gravel

  • Drywall

  • Stain

  • Studs

  • Wallpaper


Display Options



  • Choice of display precision, including fixed decimal places or significant
    figures

  • Option to reduce inch fractions to the least common denominator or leave them
    unreduced (e.g., 1/2" vs 16/32")

  • Option to show or not show a zero before inch fractions (e.g., 5' 0-3/4" vs 5'
    3/4")


Additional Features



  • "Paperless tape" that keeps your last 20 entries (you can also recall tape
    values to the main display)

  • Memory with 10 locations - all support store, recall, add (M+), and subtract
    (M-)

  • Easy input and editing, including backspace and ability to click the main
    display value to re-enter edit mode

  • Ability to print and/or save Solver results (Windows version only)

  • Automatically stores display, stack, tape, memory, and solver values when the
    software shuts down and restores these values when you restart the calculator
