Hi

This is a great software beside me having occasional keyboard tempers and angry moments while trying to get this app to do what I need it to do. I am not getting certain things really. For example how do I get calculations done in degrees?

I saw a post suggesting using apostrophe. However when I try that things go south, I start getting multiple black dots on the other side of the equation. I am really not getting this

thanks

Hi kerem,

you are on the right way. With the apostrophe you can enter a unit and that's what degree actually is. Just enter after the apostrophe the degree ( ° ). The unit is printed in blue text color so you can see it's a unit and not a variable.

With the multiple black dots SMath tells you that something is missing for doing the calculation (in your equation: the unit degree ( ° ).

Hi

Thanks for the help. This time works , obviously putting it in the parants was the right thing to do. Somehow I was trying to put on the other side of the equation.
