@2019-05-17 08:52:42		 for example, how do I calculate 5C3*0.65^3*0.35^2.

Or even simple stuff like 0.3^6+0.4^5+0.5^4

ans*(0.65^3)*(0.35^2)

and
(0.3^6)+(0.4^5)+(0.5^4)
Not so practical but it works

It is extremely important that you learn how to use the () and the different savings/storage functions the calculator has. Furthermore, there are some very helpful built-in functions which are of great help.
