Before Assuming Malfunction Of The Calculator - Casio fx-100MS User Manual

Stack ERROR
Cause: • The calculation you are performing has caused the capacity
of the numeric stack or the command stack to be exceeded. • The
calculation you are performing has caused the capacity of the matrix
or vector stack to be exceeded.
Action: • Simplify the calculation expression. • Try splitting the
calculation into two or more parts.
Syntax ERROR
Cause: There is a problem with the format of the calculation you
are performing.
Action: Make necessary corrections.
Arg ERROR
Cause: Improper use of an argument.
Action: Make necessary corrections.
Dim ERROR (MAT and VCT Modes only)
Cause: • The matrix or vector you are trying to use in a calculation
was input without specifying its dimension. • You are trying to perform
a calculation with matrices or vectors whose dimensions do not allow
that type of calculation.
Action: • Specify the dimension of the matrix or vector and then perform
the calculation again. • Check the dimensions specified for the matrices
or vectors to see if they are compatible with the calculation.
Can't solve Error (SOLVE feature only)
Cause: The calculator could not obtain a solution.
Action: • Check for errors in the equation that you input. • Input a
value for the solution variable that is close to the expected solution
and try again.
Before Assuming Malfunction of
the Calculator...
Perform the following steps whenever an error occurs during a
calculation or when calculation results are not what you expected.
Note that you should make separate copies of important data before
performing these steps.
1. Check the calculation expression to make sure that it does not
contain any errors.
2. Make sure that you are using the correct mode for the type of
calculation you are trying to perform.
3. If the above steps do not correct your problem, press the O key.
4. Initialize all modes and settings. See "Initializing Calculation Mode
and Setup".
