The Interpreter

The GraphCalc interpreter acts very much like any standard graphing calculator. It understands the standard model for order of operations. It knows how to interpret parentheses correctly. It even knows how to compute implied multiplication. All this allows for incredible leniency when entering your expressions. For accurate results, here are a few things you should know:

  • The interpreter ignores all white space. "3+2" is the same as "3 + 2".

  • The interpreter recognizes parentheses in the appropriate manner, such that "2*(5-1)" is 8, not 9.

  • Order of operations are as follows:

    • Math Functions (GCD, LCM, Min, Max, iRand, fRand)

    • Log and Natural Log

    • Permutations, Combinations, and Factorials

    • Trig Functions

    • Power Functions (square root, to the...)

    • Multiplication and Division

    • Mod Operator

    • Addition and Subtraction

    • Comparison Operators (Greater than, Less than...)
