Comments
This calculator is a real strain for your eyes. Numbers are made of 'dots' so 'Null' for instance, has 13 dots in it and a diagonal. To use the square root, one needs to switch into the 2nd mode (if you want to calculate standard deviation from variance for example, you need to write it down first then switch into the 2nd mode and manually re-enter it there. most other brands have it on the main panel). another annoying feathure - it sometimes converts a result into 10^10 (eg. i got a result shown as 0.000003 x 10^10 which means i have to convert it into a more acceptable format ( it is an 11-digit display so in theory it should fit on the display ). In terms of design, there are much better models on the market than this one, hopefully FIA will add them to the allowed calculators list..
