Know the Details.

We want you to know exactly how to use each and every function RK-83 offers. After you see how a function works, follow it to a sample problem to see how to apply it.

The List

abs( list ⋅ matrix ⋅ number ) absolute value click for more

Returns the absolute value of each element if the argument is a list or a matrix.

angle( number ) complex phase angle click for more

Returns the complex phase angle of the argument.

cos( list ⋅ number ) cosine click for more

Returns the cosine of each element if the argument is a list. In a right triangle, tex:\cos(x) = \text{adjacent}/\text{hypotenuse}.

cosh( number ) hyperbolic cosine click for more

Returns the hyperbolic cosine of the argument.

coshinv( number ) inverse hyperbolic cosine click for more

Returns the inverse hyperbolic cosine of the argument.

cosinv( list ⋅ number ) inverse cosine click for more

Returns the inverse cosine of each element if the argument is a list.

Returns the cotangent of the argument.

csc( number ) cosecant click for more

Returns the cosecant of the argument.

dim( list ) dimensions click for more

Returns the number of elements in a list, or if the argument is a matrix, returns a two-element list {num rows, num cols}
