• The coordinate conversion (Pol, Rec) functions cannot be

used for a number table generation function.

• Note that the number table generation operation causes

the contents of variable X to be changed.

Start, End, and Step Value Rules

• Linear format is always used for value input.
• You can specify either values or calculation expressions (which

must produce a numeric result) for Start, End, and Step.

• Specifying an end value that is less than the Start value

causes an error, so the number table is not generated.

• The specified Start, End, and Step values should produce

a maximum of 30 x-values for the number table being
generated. Executing a number generation table using a
Start, End, and Step value combination that produces
more than 30 x-value causes an error.

Note: Certain functions and Start, End, Step value
combinations can cause number generation to take a long time.

Number Table Screen

The number table screen shows x-values calculated using the
specified Start, End, as well as the values obtained when
each x-value is substituted in the function f(x).
• Note that you can use the number table screen for viewing

values only. Table contents cannot be edited.

• Pressing the

key returns to the function editor screen.

TABLE Mode Precautions

Note that changing the input/output format settings (Math format
or Linear format) on the calculator’s setup screen while in the
TABLE Mode clears the number table generation function.

Using the Verify Command

Use the

key to enter the VERIF Mode when you want to

compare and check two values.
