HP Prime Graphing Calculator - Manual (Page 31)

Getting started 27
Note that the degree and minute entries must be integers,
and the minute and second entries must be positive.
Decimals are not allowed, except in the seconds.
Note too that the HP
Prime treats a value in
hexgesimal format as a
single entity. Hence any
operation performed on
a hexagesimal value is
performed on the entire
value. For example, if
you enter 10°25′ 26″
2 , the whole value is squared, not just
the seconds component. The result in this case is
108°39′ 26.8544″ .

Numbers like and are expressed in
scientific notation, that is, in terms of powers of ten. This is
simpler to work with than 50 000 or 0.000 000 321. To
enter numbers like these, use the
B functionality. This is
easier than using s 10 k .
