This command works in CAS View only.
- Numeric[ <Expression> ]
- Tries to determine a numerical approximation of the given expression. The number of decimals depends on the global rounding you choose in the Options Menu.
- Example:
Numeric[3/2]returns 1.5.
- Numeric[ <Expression>, <significant figures> ]
- Tries to determine a numerical approximation of the given expression, using the entered number of significant figures.
- Example:
Numeric[sin(1), 20 ]returns 0.84147098480789650666.
