Sets mode 
modeNameString
 to the new setting 
settingString
, and returns the current setting of 
that mode. 
modeNameString
 is a character string that specifies 
which mode you want to set. It must be one of 
the mode names from the table below. 
settingString
 is a character string that specifies the 
new setting for the mode. It must be one of the 
settings listed below for the specific mode you 
are setting. 
list
 contains pairs of keyword strings and will set 
them all at once. This is recommended for 
multiple-mode changes. The example shown may 
not work if each of the pairs is entered with a 
separate 
setMode() in the order shown. 
Use 
setMode(
var
) to restore settings saved with 
getMode("ALL")!
var
. 
Note: To set or return information about the 
Unit System mode, use setUnits() or getUnits()
instead of setMode() or getMode().

results in these examples may be different on 
your unit.
