It's lunch break over here. ;-)

The common antilog is 10^x. So simply type 10 [x<>y] [y^x].

The natural antilog is e^x. The 12C has a key for that. ;-)

Thanks Dieter,

This was exactly what I was looking for. As I've said before; everything is easy, when you know how. It's a shame it wasn't included in the manual, the solutions handbook or in the "logarithm and exponential" training module. I was aware of the natural log/antilog. I believe we may have had a discussion involving those when I was trying to work out how to solve for 'n' in compound interest problems.

I recently picked up a 35s secondhand quite cheap, and so it was actually nice to have a reason to pick that up and play around with it while my mathematically crippled brain was trying to work out what is actually going on with logarithms/anitlogs.


Thanks again,

Zac
