C is a shortcut key to enter a number in scientific notation format. 5 Notes • • The examples on the transparency masters assume all default settings. You can enter a value in scientific notation regardless of the numeric notation mode setting. For a negative exponent, press M before entering it. Results requiring more than 10 digits are automatically displayed in scientific notation. For the decimal notation mode, refer to Chapter 8, Decimals and decimal places. These modes (NORM and SCI) affect only the display of results. • • • 1 2 © 2007 ASTON THERMICA INCORPORATED GATE 1ERE GENERATION MultiView: A Guide For Teachers 55 Floating decimal and scientific Enter 12543, which will be in floating decimal notation and normal numeric notation (both default settings in q).
