The following shows the calculation formula used for 
Σ 
 calculations.
 Σ  
(
f

 Syntax and Input
 Σ  
(
f
(
x
),
x
,
a
,
b
)
f
(
x
):  Function of 
x
 (parameter variable specifi ed below) 
x
:  Parameter variable (Any letter from A through Z)
  • If the variable name you specify here does not match the variable name 
used within the function of
x
, the variable in the function will be treated as a 
constant.
a
:  Start point of calculation range
b
:  End point of calculation range
 • 
a
 and
b
 are integers in the range of –1 × 10 
10
<
a
<
b
 < 1 × 10 
10
.
    • The step for this calculation is fi xed as 1.
