The ADA website has a picture of the basic 4 function calculator, which looks like it is the basic "windows" calculator.

On the windows calculator, you can click "view" and change from "standard" to "scientific" on the top. This expands the calculator for "scientific" functions like exponents, log, sin, cos ... and other simple but useful functions.

Is this available for the QR section or is the "scientific" view disabled??

Thank you!
 
on the real exam, you really won't need the calculator except for problems that really requires you to get down to the decimal points correctly. Most other problems will allow you to estimate since the numbers will be pretty easy to work with.
