This calculator is designed for Spain and Portugal market. I recently was able to obtain one from an auction site.












Introduction



Iberia is in reference to the Iberian Peninsula, which contains Spain and Continental Portugal. The fx-570SP X II Iberia is a calculator with all the keys, menus, functions, and prompts in Spanish.



Examples:

The trigonometric functions sin and sin ⁻¹ are labeled sen and Arcsen, respectively.

MCM is Minimo Comune Multiplo, also known as Least Common Multiple (LCM) in a lot of the world.

Likewise, MCD is Maximo Comune Divisor, also known as Greatest Common Divisor (GCD).



The calculator uses a decimal point as a separator between a number’s integer and fractional part.

The fx-570SP X II Iberia is based off the fx-570EX and the solar counterpart, the very popular fx-991EX Classwiz.



My review of the fx-991EX Classwiz from 2015: https://edspi31415.blogspot.com/2015/11/casio-fx-991ex-classwiz-review.html



There are several functions that are present of the fx-570SP X II Iberia that are not present in the fx-991EX Classwiz:



|_ ([ALPHA] [fraction bar template]): Euclidean Division. Returns the quotient, labeled C, and remainder, labeled R, from dividing two integers.

Example:

148 |_ 15 returns C=9, R=13



Π ([ALPHA] [ x ]): Product of a function f(x). In E Mat (Math IO), the product function is shown in a template form.

Example:

1^2/2 * 2^2/2 * 3^2/2 * 4^2/2 = Π(x^2/2, 1, 4) returns 36





MCM ([ALPHA] [ ÷ ]): Least Common Multiple

Example:

LCM(14, 21) → MCM(14, 21) returns 42



MCD ([ALPHA] [ × ]): Greatest Common Divisor

Example:

GCD(14, 21) → MCD(14, 21) returns 7



Simp ([ALPHA] [ ( ]): Manual simplification of fractions (when Simplificar - Manual is selected).



Repeating Bar ([ALPHA] [ √ ]): Allows to easily type repeating decimal patters.

Example:

1/3 can be written as 0.3 with a bar over the 3 (0.3333333333…).



Menu (Menú)



The modes of the available in the fx-570SP X II are same of the fx-991 EX Classwiz:



1: Calcular (Calculate)

2: Complejos (Complex Numbers)

3: Base-N (Base Conversions and Boolean Objects)

4: Matriz (Matrices)

5: Vector (Vector)

6: Estadística (Statistics)

7: Distribución (Distribution)

8: Hoja de cálculo (Spreadsheet – 1,700 byte capacity, 45 rows, 5 columns (A-E))

9: Tabla (Table – up two function f(x), g(x), can be graphed using a QR code)

A: Ecuación/Func (Equation Solver: Linear Systems and Polynomials)

B: Inecuación (Inequalities)

C: Verificar (Verify)



The fx-570SP X II can solve up to 4 x 4 linear systems and 4-degree polynomials.



Regressions included are:

y = a + b x

y = a + b x + c x²

y = a + b ln x

y = a e^(b x)

y = a b^x

y = a x^b

y = a + b/x



The fx-570SP X II is succeed by the fx-570SP CW (https://www.calculados.com/calculadoras/fx-570-sp-cw/#1683017979230-21cc574f-5c0e).



Final Thoughts



I am fluent in English (my first language) and speak some Spanish, so the fx-570SP X II is going to help practice mathematical terms in Spanish. I look forward to using this calculator.



Calculated Industries has a Spanish version of the Construction Master 5 named the Construction Master 5 En Espanol (https://www.calculated.com/prd201/Construction-Master-5-In-Spanish.html), I may want this for my collection.
