Hi,
Whenever I get an answer containing e^(ln(x)*y), it doesn't become
x^y, even after pressing EVAL again. I'd like to know if there's any
flag, setting or command to get the result in the x^y form.
Thanks.
PS: I own a 50g.

Yes, the 50g likes putting all exponential forms into something
containing e by default.

To change it back, go to [LS][CONVERT] (the 6 key), choose F4
[REWRITE], and finally F3 [EXP2POW].

Note that if you press EVAL again, it will return to the e^(Y*LN(X))
form.

The EXPAND command will cause e^(ln(x)*y) to become x^y.
At least on my 49+.

Yup, it works on my 50 also. Thanks. I didn't know that worked. It's a
lot easier to get to (compared to EXP2POW) in terms of how many menus
to go through.
