Turning the iPhone calculator sideways reveals a scientific calc layout, including tanh
Unfortunately feature bloat on a simple device often results in making things no longer easily discoverable. (I'm looking at you, force touch.)
- masklinn 7y agotanh and arctan are different functions.
- didgeoridoo 7y agoTo get to inverse tan, you need to hit the “2nd” toggle on the far left. (So yes, you need to turn your phone sideways and tap a poorly-marked and unexplained toggle button that looks like every other button on the screen.)
- Damogran6 7y agoAnd everyone else uses ‘inv’ instead of 2nd.
- jimktrains2 7y agoThat's not true at all. The ti30 and relatives are arguably one of the most well known scientific calculators in the world, and it uses 2nd. http://i.ebayimg.com/00/$T2eC16FHJH4FHejHUSZ3BSB3Dzh6%20g~~_32.JPG http://i.ebayimg.com/00/$T2eC16FHJH4FHejHUSZ3BSB3Dzh6%20g~~_... The hp35 and relatives use an upper and lower "shift" button to access the inverse trig functions. http://i.ebayimg.com/images/i/251900074306-0-1/s-l1000.jpg http://i.ebayimg.com/images/i/251900074306-0-1/s-l1000.jpg
- masklinn 7y ago« 2nd » is the toggle for the alternate calculator layout (which has all the inverse functions). The key on that alternate layout is tan^-1.
