fx6300g.jpg (24158 bytes)The fx-6300G is an older model graphical calculator by Casio. It has an interesting display consisting of multiple display areas; only part of the display is used for graphing purposes.

Although it has been discontinued, the calculator's small size and pleasant display/keyboard layout still make it a favored choice by many. Its 400-byte program memory is sufficient to store even some complex applications; the programming model provides for conditional execution, loops, and subroutines. This programming model is very similar to that used in later Casio graphical models, such as the CFX-9800G.

The program example here, another implementation of my favorite the Gamma function, demonstrates many aspects of this machine's programming model. This program leaves about half the calculator's program memory unused.
