Matrix Calculations

# Determinants and inverse matrices are

subject to error due to dropped digits.

# Matrix operations are performed

individually on each cell, so calculations
may require considerable time to
complete.

# The calculation precision of displayed

results for matrix calculations is

± 1 at the

least significant digit.

# If a matrix calculation result is too large to

fit into Matrix Answer Memory, an error
occurs.

# You can use the following operation to transfer

Matrix Answer Memory contents to another
matrix (or when Matrix Answer Memory
contains a determinant to a variable).

MatAns

→ Mat

α

In the above,

α

is any variable name A through

Z. The above does not affect the contents of
Matrix Answer Memory.

# For matrix power calculations, calculation is

possible up to a power of 32766.
