These functions are also listed in the context menu of the Commands window. Any functions not contained in the Elements window need to be typed manually in the Commands window.

The following is a list of all functions that appear in the Elements window. The icon next to the function indicates that it can be accessed through the Elements window (menu View - Elements) or through the context menu of the Commands window. List of functions Icon Natural Exponential Function Inserts a natural exponential function. You can also type func e^<?> directly in the Commands window. Icon Natural Logarithm Inserts a natural (base e) logarithm with one placeholder. You can also type ln(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Exponential Function Inserts an exponential function with one placeholder. You can also type exp(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Logarithm Inserts a common (base 10) logarithm with one placeholder. You can also type log(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon PowerUFI: removed help id Inserts x raised to the yth power. You can also type <?>^{<?>} in the Commands window. You can replace the ^ character with rsup or sup. Icon Sine Inserts a sine function with one placeholder. You can also type sin(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Cosine Inserts a cosine function with one placeholder. You can also type cos(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Tangent Inserts a tangent function with one placeholder. You can also type tan(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Cotangent Inserts a cotangent symbol with a placeholder. You can also type cot(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Hyperbolic Sine Inserts a hyperbolic sine with one placeholder. You can also type sinh(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Square Root Inserts a square root symbol with one placeholder. You can also type sqrt(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Hyperbolic Cosine Inserts a hyperbolic cosine symbol with one placeholder. You can also type cosh(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Hyperbolic Tangent Inserts a hyperbolic tangent symbol with one placeholder. You can also type tanh(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Hyperbolic Cotangent Inserts a hyperbolic cotangent symbol with one placeholder. You can directly type coth(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon nth Root Inserts an nth root function with two placeholders. You can also type nroot n x in the Commands window. Icon Arc Sine Inserts an arc sine function with one placeholder. You can also type arcsin(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Arc Cosine Inserts an arc cosine symbol with one placeholder. You can also type arccos(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Arc Tangent Inserts an arc tangent function with one placeholder. You can also type arctan(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Arc Cotangent Inserts an arc cotangent function with one placeholder. You can directly type arccot(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Absolute Value Inserts an absolute value sign with one placeholder. You can also type abs(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Area Hyperbolic Sine Inserts an area hyperbolic sine function with one placeholder. You can also type arsinh(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Area Hyperbolic Cosine Inserts an area hyperbolic cosine function with one placeholder. You can also type arcosh(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Area Hyperbolic Tangent Inserts an area hyperbolic tangent function with one placeholder. You can also type artanh(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Area Hyperbolic Cotangent Inserts an area hyperbolic cotangent function with one placeholder. You can also type arcoth(<?>) in the Commands window. Icon Factorial Inserts the factorial sign with one placeholder. You can directly type fact <?> in the Commands window. You can also assign an index or an exponent to a function. For example, typing sin^2x results in in a function "sine to the power of 2x". When typing functions manually in the Commands window, note that spaces are required for some functions (for example, abs 5=5 ; abs -3=3).
