One more thing for posterity: http://ftp.casio.co.jp/pub/world_manual/edu/en/fx9860GSD_9860G_E.pdf Why wasn't this included in the package when I bought the calculator? In any case, I wish someone had shown me this link a year ago.

There is nothing like an "nCr button" on Casio fx-9860G, sorry. In any case, I have already found the answer, thank you. For posterity: To calculate binomial coefficients, you need to find the "C" function (the fat-looking C letter) under the CATALOG in the C's and type the n and r values...

Yes, what I have heard to be impossible to do is to model a quantum phenomenon with a scale physical model (balls, strings, smooth surfaces). I take it that it is possible to create mathematical models of quantum phenomena. Are there other types of models that could be either possible or...

But why? How exactly could sugar from different batches affect the results of my experiment? I mean, for all I know, crystal sugar is basically sucrose, and sucrose is sucrose, or C12H22O11 if you like. If you use distilled water - pure H2O - in an experiment, I don't think you worry much...

Is it at all possible for the crystal sugar from one package to be qualitatively different from crystal sugar from another package (brand, etc.)? In other words, if I need sucrose for an experiment, could it affect the results if I use crystal sugar from different packages or of different...

How to calculate 1) binomial coefficients and 2) binomial distribution on a Casio fx-9860G calculator?

I am not a physicist, so please excuse the gaps in my knowledge. I am writing a would-be philosophical essay about models in different fields of research. In most general terms, my task is to consider how modelling can be useful in the pursuit of knowledge in the widest understanding of the...
