Keys<br />
These numbered paragraphs provide<br />
explanations for the corresponding numbered<br />
keys on the illustration below.<br />
1. % A displays a menu of all log<br />

Notes<br />
• The examples on the transparency<br />
masters assume all default settings.<br />
• E ends a logarithmic function.<br />
log calculates the common logarithm<br />
(base 10).<br />
10^ calculates the common antilogarithm<br />
(10 raised to the power of the value<br />
entered).<br />
ln calculates the natural logarithm (base<br />
e, where e = 2.718281828459).<br />
e^ calculates the natural antilogarithm (e<br />
raised to the power of the value).<br />
