; Does operations on numbers like a calculator 5 (9 - 3) / 2 ; Uses exact rational arithmetic 1/2 + 1/6 ; Uses as many digits as necessary for exact arithmetic 5^99 ; Press the Esc key, issue a Factor command, then a Transfer Demo command 54! ; Returns the principal root of square roots SQRT 9 ; Simplifies fractional powers (2/27)^(2/3) ; Some of these simplifications are tricky SQRT (4 - 2 * SQRT (3)) SQRT (5 + SQRT 24) + SQRT (5 - SQRT 24) ; i with a hat represents the imaginary SQRT(-1) SQRT (-1) ; You can enter i-hat as #i and do complex arithmetic (1 + 2 #i) (3 + #i) ; Complex denominators are automatically rationalized (2 + #i) / (#i + 1) ; Fractional powers default to the principal root (-8)^(1/3) ; Fractional powers of complex numbers are simplified SQRT (55/36 + 4/3 #i) ; You can enter infinity as inf and combine it with itself or numbers inf + inf + 5
