今天,即使是最基本的Windows应用程序,例如Alarm、Clock和Calculator,除了明显的杂务之外,也可以让您执行许多不同的任务。在计算器应用程序中, (Calculator app)2020 年 5 月(May 2020)版本的Windows 10中的所有用户都可以使用新模式。顾名思义,它可用于在图形上绘制方程和分析函数。如果您是学生或员工进行(employee making)演示,这种绘图模式(graphing mode)非常有用,特别是如果您的职业是机械和建筑流。虽然,对于大多数用户来说,绘图模式(graphing mode)是默认为灰色或禁用(greyed out or disabled by default)。因此需要手动启用。今天,我们将教您如何在Windows 10中启用或禁用(Windows 10)计算器绘图模式(Calculator Graphing Mode)。
如何在 Windows 10 中启用计算器绘图模式(How to Enable Calculator Graphing Mode in Windows 10)
Calculator 应用程序(Calculator application)本身内置了四种不同的模式(four different modes)以及一堆转换器(bunch of converters)。
- 第一个称为标准模式( Standard mode),可让您执行基本的算术计算。
- 接下来是科学模式(Scientific mode),它允许使用三角函数和指数进行高级计算。
- 其后是用于执行与编程相关的计算的程序员模式。(Programmer mode)
- 最后,新的绘图模式(Graphing mode)可以在图表上绘制方程。
为什么要在计算器中启用绘图模式?(Why Enable Graphing Mode in Calculator?)
- 它可以帮助您可视化(visualize the concept)代数(Algebraic)方程的概念,如函数、多项式、二次方程。
- 它允许您处理难以在纸上绘制的参数和极坐标图。( parametric & polar graphing)
- 在三角函数(Trigonometry)中,它可以帮助您计算出幅度、周期和相移。(figure out amplitude, period, and phase shift.)
- 在编程中,如果您的项目基于数据集和电子表格(data sets and spreadsheets),您可以依靠它来获得准确的数据。
在计算器应用程序(calculator application)中启用图形模式实际上是一项非常简单的任务,涉及编辑组策略编辑器或 Windows 注册表(Group Policy Editor or Windows Registry)。这两个应用程序都存储了与Windows 操作系统(Windows OS)及其应用程序相关的重要设置,因此在执行这些步骤时要格外小心,以避免提示任何错误或完全损坏您的系统。(be extremely careful)在本文中,我们详细介绍了在Windows 10中启用(Windows 10)计算器图形模式(Calculator Graphing Mode)的两种不同方法,并在最后提供了该模型的基本演练。
