ΔtmpCnv()
Catalog >
ΔtmpCnv(Expr_°tempUnit, _°tempUnit2)
⇒ expression _°tempUnit2
Note: You can insert this function from the
keyboard by typing deltaTmpCnv(...).
Converts a temperature range (the
difference between two temperature
values) specified by Expr from one unit to
another. Valid temperature units are:
_°C Celsius
_°F Fahrenheit
_°K Kelvin
_°R Rankine
To enter °, select it from the Symbol
Palette or type @d.
To type _ , press /_.
1_°C and 1_°K have the same magnitude,
as do 1_°F and 1_°R. However, 1_°C is 9/5
as large as 1_°F.
For example, a 100_°C range (from 0_°C to
100_°C) is equivalent to a 180_°F range.
To convert a particular temperature value
instead of a range, use tmpCnv().
Note: You can use the Catalog to select
temperature units.
tPdf()
Catalog >
tPdf(XVal,df) ⇒ number if XVal is a
number, list if XVal is a list
Computes the probability density function
(pdf) for the Student-t distribution at a
specified x value with specified degrees of
freedom df.
trace()
Catalog >
trace(squareMatrix) ⇒ expression
Returns the trace (sum of all the elements
on the main diagonal) of squareMatrix.
