programming

The calculators can be programmed in different ways. The fx-9860G supports the CASIO BASIC programming language .

The other method is to create an "add-in", that is, binary programs that are executed directly on the computer processor. Casio has released two official add-ins, Geometry and PHYSIUM. With the geometry add-in you can draw and design geometric shapes and calculate and measure geometric values ​​from the constructions you have drawn yourself. With the PHYSIUM add-in you can see the periodic table of the chemical elements and display many fundamental physical constants .

In 2007, Casio released an SDK that enables users to write their own add-ins. However, these are not supported by Casio customer service. Add-ins and the SDK are available for registered users on the Casio website.
