Difference Between "approx" and Standard Calculations

approx differs from standard calculations (calculations that do not use natural
display notation) in the number of display digits and handling of variables. With
standard calculations, calculation results are displayed without using exponential
notation.

Example

j

When part of the expression includes a variable, the variable is processed as a
variable regardless of whether or not it has been assigned a value.

Example

f*aA+dw
