Casio fx -5000F - Exponents
Hello,

I just discovered this surprising feature on the Casio fx-5000F, visually nice but somehow functionally useless:

On the keyboard, there's not only the "x^y" function but also a "x^n" function !

e.g. on keying 2.67^13, and for the same result,
using the "x^y" function displays "2.67xy13",
but using the "x^n" function displays 2.6713 !

I think it's related to its large character set (Uppercase and lowercase alphabet, greek letters, physical constants) and formula programming type letting it calculate input as compact as "ax2+bx+c"

Did you ever see such a "x^n" function on a calculator ?
