Section 1
What Callie Pro Is For
Use Callie Pro when you want more than a basic calculator but still want a tool that stays direct and visual.
Callie Pro is especially useful for:
- Graphing ordinary functions such as
sin(x),x^2, and2*x - 1. - Comparing multiple expressions on the same graph.
- Exploring parametric, polar, complex, and 3D graphs.
- Animating parameterized graphs with Temporal playback.
- Tracing points, roots, extrema, slopes, and intersections.
- Creating tables from graph expressions.
- Running symbolic-style CAS operations.
- Working with matrices, systems, eigenvalues, and row reduction.
- Running statistics summaries, confidence intervals, and hypothesis tests.
- Writing small local Python scripts for numerical work.
- Exporting graphs, data, and reports as files you can save or share.
Callie Pro does not require an account. Graph documents and calculations are local to your device. Python scripts run locally inside the app's calculator sandbox.
Section 2
First Launch
When you open Callie Pro, the app starts in the main calculator shell. The first screen is arranged like a calculator built around a large LCD workspace.
The upper workspace shows the current tool. The lower shell contains the large workspace navigation row, the calculator keypad, modifier keys, and special input modes.
The main workspace buttons are:
Y=: edit graph expressions.GRAPH: view the graph canvas.TABLE: view numerical tables for the active graph.WINDOW: adjust graph bounds and fitting controls.TRACE: trace graph points and analysis results.
These are workspace navigation buttons, not calculator input keys. They take you to the major graph views.
The rest of the shell gives you calculator entry, numeric keys, operations, functions, modifiers, arrows, and text entry tools.
Section 3
The Calculator Shell
The calculator shell is the persistent control surface at the bottom of the app.
It has several jobs:
- Enter numbers and expressions.
- Switch workspaces.
- Toggle modifier layers.
- Navigate trace points.
- Move text cursors in text entry mode.
- Insert math functions, constants, and operators.
- Run or submit workspace actions when appropriate.
The shell is intentionally fixed. When you move from Graph to CAS, Matrix, Stats, or Python, the shell remains available and the workspace above it changes.
Primary Keys
The main numeric and operation keys handle ordinary calculator input:
- Digits
0through9. - Decimal point.
- Basic operations
+,-,x, and division. ENTERfor submitting an expression or action in the current workspace.CLEARfor clearing the active input or workspace state.DELfor deleting the character before the cursor.
The exact effect of ENTER, CLEAR, and DEL depends on the active workspace. In the calculator scratch area they affect calculator expressions. In CAS they run or clear CAS input. In text workspaces they route through the focused text editor.
Modifier Keys
Callie Pro includes modifier layers so the keypad can hold more functions without becoming a full keyboard.
The most important modifiers are:
2nd: exposes second-layer functions and symbols.3rd: exposes third-layer functions and symbols.LTTR: switches into letter and text entry mode.MATH,STAT,MATRIX,CAS,PYTHON, andCATALOG: jump to or insert related tools depending on context.
Modifier previews use the app's color language. Second-layer functions use a yellow/brass accent, while third-layer functions use a green/mint accent.
LTTR Text Entry
LTTR turns the calculator shell into a text-entry layer. Use it when you need letters, variable names, Python text, CAS expressions, or function names that are easier to type than assemble from math keys.
In LTTR mode:
- Primary keys enter letters.
SHIFTchanges letter case.SPCinserts a space.TABinserts indentation.ENTERinserts a newline when the active field is a text editor.DELdeletes text.- The directional pad becomes text navigation.
The LTTR second layer is for common punctuation and operators such as:
. , : ; ' " _ # ? ! + - * / = ( )
The LTTR third layer is for advanced and programming-oriented symbols such as:
[ ] { } < > <= >= == != => ->
LTTR is useful in the Python workspace, CAS, complex expressions, and any field where you want to enter names or structured text.
Directional Pad
Outside LTTR mode, the directional pad is trace-oriented. It moves through graph trace points or analysis targets when a graph is active.
In LTTR mode, the directional pad becomes text navigation:
- Left and right move the cursor by character.
- Up and down move between logical lines when possible.
- The center label changes to
NAVto show that it is navigating text, not tracing a graph.
This helps keep text entry calculator-native while still giving you cursor control.
Section 4
Main Workspaces
Callie Pro is organized around workspaces.
The core graph workspaces are:
Y=for editing expressions.GRAPHfor viewing and interacting with the graph.TABLEfor numerical values.WINDOWfor bounds, fit, and viewport controls.TRACEfor point-by-point exploration.
Additional workspaces include:
- Calculator scratch.
- CAS.
- Matrix.
- Stats.
- Python.
- Catalog and constants.
- Settings and export tools.
You do not need to use every workspace. A common workflow might be:
- Enter
sin(x)inY=. - Tap
GRAPH. - Tap
Fitif needed. - Use
TRACEto inspect values. - Open
TABLEfor numerical rows. - Export a PDF or CSV if you want to save the result.
Section 5
Graph Workspace Overview
The graph system is the center of Callie Pro.
It supports 2D, 3D, complex, and temporal graphing. Each expression lives in the graph document and can be shown, hidden, edited, traced, tabled, analyzed, and exported.
The app includes ordinary graph types and dedicated Temporal graph types. Ordinary graph types are for static graphs. Temporal graph types are for playback over a changing parameter.
The graph canvas is designed to use the available display area while keeping controls reachable. Two-dimensional graphs fill the main canvas. Three-dimensional graphs reserve room for 3D controls and readouts so that mesh, trace, analysis, and Temporal controls remain accessible.
Starter Graph
Callie Pro opens with a starter graph so the graph workspace is not blank. You can replace those expressions immediately.
To begin from scratch:
- Tap
Y=. - Select an existing expression row.
- Edit the expression.
- Hide or delete rows you do not need.
- Tap
GRAPHto view the result.
Expression Rows
Each graph expression row has:
- A name such as
Y1,R1,Z1, or another prefix depending on type. - A visibility toggle.
- One or more expression fields.
- Domain or sample settings when relevant.
- Style and graph-type controls.
When an expression is visible, Callie Pro samples and renders it if the expression is valid for the current graph type.
Section 6
Y= Editor
Use Y= to create, edit, and organize graph expressions.
The Y= editor is where you decide what a graph means. The Graph workspace shows the result; the Y= workspace defines the math.
Common tasks:
- Add a function.
- Change a graph type.
- Hide or show an expression.
- Edit domains and sample counts.
- Select a Temporal example.
- Set 3D mesh quality.
- Adjust complex height mode.
Editing A Function
For a standard function, enter an expression in terms of x.
Examples:
sin(x)
x^2
2*x - 1
e^(-0.1*x)*sin(8*x)
sqrt(x)Then tap GRAPH.
If an expression returns complex values in a standard real-valued graph, Callie Pro does not render invalid graph artifacts. It will indicate that the result is complex and point you toward Complex Graph mode.
Adding Another Expression
Add another row when you want to compare functions.
Example:
Y1 = sin(x)
Y2 = 0.2*x^2 - 2Both can be visible at the same time. The graph uses separate colors and labels so you can compare them visually.
Hiding Expressions
Hide an expression when you want to keep it in the document but remove it from the current graph.
This is useful when:
- You are comparing several possible models.
- You want to isolate one graph for export.
- A heavy 3D surface is slowing down the view.
- You want to keep a formula but focus on another one.
Changing Graph Type
Graph type controls determine which fields appear.
For example:
- Function uses
y = f(x). - Parametric uses
x(t)andy(t). - Polar uses
r(theta). - Complex uses
z(t). - 3D Surface uses
z = f(x, y). - 3D Curve / Vector uses
x(t),y(t), andz(t). - Complex 3D Surface uses
f(z)over the complex input plane.
When you change graph types, review the fields carefully. A formula that makes sense as a function might not make sense as a surface or complex path.
Section 7
2D Function Graphs
Function graphs plot a real-valued output against x.
Use Function mode for formulas like:
y = sin(x)
y = x^2
y = 2*x - 1
y = e^(-0.1*x)*sin(8*x)Example: Line
Enter:
2*x - 1Tap GRAPH, then use Fit if needed.
The graph should show a straight line with slope 2 and y-intercept -1.
Example: Parabola
Enter:
x^2Use the graph view to inspect the vertex and shape. Use Trace to move along the curve and Table to inspect numeric values.
Example: Wave
Enter:
sin(x)Use Zoom and Fit to adjust the view. Use Trace to move smoothly along sampled points.
For a faster wave:
sin(8*x)For a damped wave:
e^(-0.1*x)*sin(8*x)Callie Pro includes viewport safety limits so extreme zooming or non-finite values do not produce unstable graph artifacts.
Section 8
Parametric 2D Graphs
Parametric graphs define x and y separately using a parameter, usually t.
Use Parametric mode when the curve is easier to describe as motion or a path.
Example:
x(t) = cos(t)
y(t) = sin(t)
t min = 0
t max = 2*piThis creates a unit circle.
Another example:
x(t) = t*cos(t)
y(t) = t*sin(t)
t min = 0
t max = 10This creates a spiral.
Parametric graphs are good for:
- Circles and ellipses.
- Orbits.
- Spirals.
- Projectile paths.
- Curves where
xis not a single independent variable.
Section 9
Polar Graphs
Polar graphs use an angle and a radius.
The typical form is:
r(theta) = ...Examples:
2*sin(3*theta)
1 + cos(theta)
3Polar mode is useful for:
- Rose curves.
- Limacons.
- Circles centered away from the origin.
- Angular patterns.
Use Fit if the curve appears too small or too large. Use Trace to inspect angle and position.
Section 10
Complex 2D Graphs
Complex 2D graphing plots complex values on the real-imaginary plane.
A complex number:
z = a + biis plotted as:
x = Re(z)
y = Im(z)So:
3 + 4iplots at(3, 4).iplots at(0, 1).-1plots at(-1, 0).-2 + 5iplots at(-2, 5).
Complex Point Mode
Enter a constant complex expression:
3 + 4iCallie Pro plots a point at (3, 4).
Trace readouts include:
zRe(z)Im(z)|z|arg(z)
For 3 + 4i, the magnitude is 5.
Complex Path Mode
Enter a complex expression in terms of t.
Example:
z(t) = e^(i*t)
t min = 0
t max = 2*piThis plots the unit circle because:
e^(i*t) = cos(t) + i*sin(t)Other examples:
z(t) = t*e^(i*t)Creates an outward spiral.
z(t) = (1 + 0.1*t)*e^(i*t)Creates a growing spiral.
z(t) = e^((-0.1 + i)*t)Creates a decaying spiral.
z(t) = cos(t) + i*sin(t)Creates the unit circle.
Complex shorthand is accepted in complex graph expressions. You can type forms such as:
2i
3+4i
e^(i*t)
e^(it)
5t
5zCallie Pro handles those as complex-aware notation without changing normal real-valued graph parsing.
Optional f(z) Transform
Complex mode can also graph a complex function over a path.
Example:
z(t) = e^(i*t)
f(z) = z^2This maps the unit circle through z^2, creating a circle traced twice over the parameter range.
This is not full complex-plane domain coloring. It is path-based complex graphing: enter a path z(t), optionally transform it through f(z), and Callie Pro plots the resulting real and imaginary values.
Section 11
3D Surface Graphs
3D Surface mode plots:
z = f(x, y)Examples:
x^2 + y^2
sin(x)*cos(y)
sin(x - t)
sin(x)*cos(t)Static 3D surfaces use x and y. Temporal 3D surfaces can also use t, which lets the surface move during playback.
Use 3D Surface mode for:
- Terrain-like surfaces.
- Wave surfaces.
- Potential wells.
- Height fields.
- Multivariable functions.
Mesh Quality
3D surfaces are sampled as a mesh. Higher mesh settings can look smoother, but they require more computation.
Use lower mesh settings when:
- You are animating a Temporal surface.
- The expression is expensive.
- The surface has many sharp features.
- You want the app to stay very responsive.
Use higher mesh settings when:
- Playback is paused.
- You want a cleaner export.
- You are inspecting a static surface.
Callie Pro skips invalid points such as NaN, infinity, and singularities when possible, so expressions like 1/sqrt(x^2+y^2) do not force the camera to frame impossible values.
3D Controls
The 3D graph area includes controls for:
- Surface mesh.
- Contours.
- Slices.
- 3D analysis updates.
- Trace center.
- Diagnostics and summaries.
These controls stay in the graph workspace, below or near the 3D canvas, so you can adjust the render without leaving the graph.
Section 12
3D Curve / Vector Graphs
3D Curve / Vector mode plots a path in 3D:
x(t) = ...
y(t) = ...
z(t) = ...Example:
x(t) = cos(t)
y(t) = sin(t)
z(t) = t
t min = 0
t max = 2*piThis creates a helix.
For a simple vector from the origin, enter:
x(t) = 0.95*t
y(t) = 0.02*t
z(t) = 0.40*t
t min = 0
t max = 1Callie Pro renders the curve from start to end and can show an endpoint marker/arrow direction when appropriate.
Use 3D Curve / Vector mode for:
- Vectors.
- Helices.
- Space curves.
- Parametric paths.
- Motion traces.
Section 13
Complex 3D Surface Graphs
Complex 3D Surface mode plots a real height surface over the complex input plane.
You enter:
f(z) = ...Callie Pro treats:
z = x + i*yThen it evaluates f(z) over the selected real and imaginary ranges. The horizontal axes represent:
Re(z)Im(z)
The vertical height is chosen by height mode:
|f(z)|arg(f(z))Re(f(z))Im(f(z))
Example: z^2
Enter:
z^2With height mode:
|f(z)|This shows the magnitude of z^2 over the complex plane.
At z = 1 + i:
z^2 = 2i
|z^2| = 2Example: 1/z
Enter:
1/zThis has a singularity at zero. Callie Pro skips invalid samples instead of stretching the surface into misleading spikes or crashing the render.
Example: ln(z)
Enter:
ln(z)Try height mode:
Im(f(z))This can reveal branch behavior in the complex logarithm.
Example: sin(z)
Enter:
sin(z)Try height mode:
|f(z)|This shows how the magnitude of the complex sine changes across the input plane.
Complex 3D is useful for visualizing complex functions as surfaces. It is not domain coloring; it is a height-surface view.
Section 14
Temporal Graph Playback
Temporal graph types add playback over a parameter, usually t.
Temporal Mode is built into dedicated temporal graph types rather than attached globally to every graph. That keeps ordinary graphing stable and makes playback behavior easier to understand.
Temporal graph types include:
- Temporal Function.
- Temporal Parametric.
- Temporal Polar.
- Temporal Complex.
- Temporal 3D Surface.
Temporal controls appear only for Temporal graph types.
Controls include:
- Play and Pause.
- Step backward.
- Step forward.
- Speed.
- Loop.
- Timeline or progress.
- Current
t.
Temporal Function
Use Temporal Function for a real-valued graph that changes with time.
Example:
y = sin(x - t)
t min = 0
t max = 2*piAs t advances, the wave translates.
Temporal Parametric
Use Temporal Parametric for motion along a parametric path.
Example:
x(t) = cos(t)
y(t) = sin(t)
t min = 0
t max = 2*piPlayback moves the marker around the circle.
Temporal Complex
Use Temporal Complex for complex paths.
Example:
z(t) = e^(i*t)
t min = 0
t max = 2*piPlayback moves around the unit circle on the complex plane.
Another example:
z(t) = e^(i*t) + cos(t)This creates an offset complex path with a changing real component.
Temporal 3D Surface
Use Temporal 3D Surface for a surface that changes with time.
Examples:
z = sin(x - t)A translating wave.
z = sin(x)*cos(t)A standing wave.
z = sin(sqrt((x-t)^2 + y^2))A moving ripple.
z = e^(-((x-t)^2 + y^2))A moving Gaussian.
During playback, Callie Pro uses performance protections so the app stays responsive. Static surfaces can remain cached while temporal surfaces update. Playback may use lower-resolution preview meshes, then restore fuller quality when paused.
Synced Temporal Playback
When compatible Temporal expressions are visible together, Callie Pro can synchronize them with a shared scene clock.
This is useful for comparing multiple temporal fields that should move under the same t range.
For example, a multi-layer Temporal 3D Surface scene might include:
Y1 = -1/sqrt(x^2 + y^2 + 0.03^2)
Y2 = 0.35*e^(-80*((x-cos(t))^2 + (y-sin(t))^2))The first surface is static. The second surface changes with t. Callie Pro keeps the static surface stable and updates the temporal surface during playback.
Temporal Safety
Temporal playback uses the same numeric safety rules as static graphing:
- Non-finite values are skipped.
- Unsafe graph values are rejected.
- Heavy 3D playback is throttled.
- Camera fitting is kept stable during playback.
- Editing an expression stops playback.
If a formula becomes invalid, playback stops or reports a clear problem rather than trying to render nonsense.
Section 15
Trace
Trace lets you inspect graph values directly on the curve.
Use Trace when you want to answer:
- What is the value here?
- Where am I on the curve?
- What is the current
x,y,t, ortheta? - What is the complex value at this point?
- What is the 3D point under the trace?
Starting Trace
Open TRACE or use trace controls from the graph.
For 2D graphs, trace moves along sampled curve points. Left and right move through the curve. Hold-to-repeat lets the trace continue moving while you hold the arrow.
For complex paths, trace reports:
tzRe(z)Im(z)|z|arg(z)
For 3D curves, trace reports:
txyz
For 3D surfaces, trace can inspect the current surface slice or point depending on the graph type.
Tap-To-Trace
When available, tapping near a curve moves trace to a nearby sampled point. After that, arrow tracing continues normally along the sampled curve.
Tap-to-trace is meant to help you get close quickly. Fine movement still comes from the trace arrows.
Analysis Markers
Analysis tools can create markers for:
- Roots.
- Minimums.
- Maximums.
- Intersections.
- Derivatives and slopes.
- Tangents when explicitly requested.
Repeated analysis actions refresh existing markers instead of stacking duplicate overlays for the same expression and role.
Section 16
Table
The Table workspace shows numerical values for graph expressions.
Use Table when you want to inspect values without manually tracing point by point.
For a standard function, table rows usually show:
x- expression value
- status if a value cannot be evaluated
For complex graph mode, the table uses complex-specific columns:
tRe(z)Im(z)|z|arg(z)
This means a complex table does not simply say that a result is complex. It shows the real and imaginary information in a useful form.
For z(t)=e^(i*t), useful rows include:
t = 0 Re = 1 Im = 0 |z| = 1
t = pi/2 Re = 0 Im = 1 |z| = 1
t = pi Re = -1 Im = 0 |z| = 1
t = 3pi/2 Re = 0 Im = -1 |z| = 1
t = 2pi Re = 1 Im = 0 |z| = 1For 3D and Complex 3D modes, table views focus on the sampled quantities that make sense for the active expression, such as input coordinates, output components, magnitude, argument, and selected height.
Section 17
Window, Fit, And Zoom
The Window workspace controls graph bounds.
For 2D graphs, the main window values are:
x minx maxy miny max
For parameterized graphs, domain fields may also appear:
t mint max- samples
For 3D surfaces, you may also work with:
xrangeyrangezor height fit- mesh resolution
Fit
Fit asks Callie Pro to frame visible finite graph content in the canvas.
Use Fit when:
- A graph appears too small.
- A graph is off-screen.
- You have zoomed or panned too far.
- You loaded a new expression and want a sensible view.
Fit ignores invalid samples, non-finite values, and skipped singularities. A single impossible spike should not ruin the view.
Zoom
Zoom In and Zoom Out change the visible range.
Callie Pro prevents unsafe numeric zoom extremes. If you attempt to zoom too far in or out, the app stops at a safe graph limit rather than letting the renderer collapse into numeric artifacts.
When a limit is reached, the app may show a small message such as:
Zoom limit reachedReset
Fit or reset-style actions recover a sane graph view after panning, zooming, or rotating.
Use these when the graph is technically valid but no longer framed in a useful way.
Section 18
Graph Analysis Tools
Graph analysis tools help you find important features of a graph.
Depending on graph type and expression, tools may include:
- Root.
- Minimum.
- Maximum.
- Intersection.
- dy/dx.
- Tangent.
- Trace.
Root
Root analysis finds where a curve crosses zero.
For:
x^2 - 4the roots are:
x = -2
x = 2If you tap Root again, Callie Pro refreshes the root markers instead of adding duplicate copies.
dy/dx
dy/dx reports slope information.
For:
y = x^2at:
x = 2the slope is:
4dy/dx uses compact slope markers. It does not draw a full tangent line unless you explicitly choose a tangent-style analysis.
Minimum And Maximum
Minimum and Maximum analysis finds local or visible extrema when the expression and sampled region support it.
Use Fit and Window controls to focus on the region you care about before relying on extrema.
Intersection
Intersection analysis compares visible expressions and finds crossing points where possible.
This is helpful when comparing models, solving approximate equations visually, or checking where two curves agree.
Section 19
Calculator Scratch Workspace
The calculator scratch area is for direct computation.
Use it for:
- Arithmetic.
- Scientific functions.
- Constants.
- Complex values.
- Quick checks before graphing.
Examples:
2 + 2
sin(pi/2)
asin(1)
sqrt(-4)
e^(i*pi) + 1
gcd(15, 12)
lcm(15, 28)Expected results include:
2 + 2 = 4
sin(pi/2) = 1
asin(1) = 1.57079632679
sqrt(-4) = 2i
e^(i*pi) + 1 = 0
gcd(15, 12) = 3
lcm(15, 28) = 420Calculator memory is designed for calculator-style work:
M+adds to memory.M-subtracts from memory.MRrecalls memory.MCclears memory.
Memory is meant to persist until you clear it.
Section 20
CAS Workspace
CAS is the computer algebra workspace. Use it when you want symbolic or exact-style help instead of only numeric graphing.
CAS operations include:
- Simplify.
- Factor.
- Expand.
- Solve.
- nsolve.
- Derivative.
- Integral.
- Limit.
- Matrix determinant.
Simplify
Simplify reduces an expression when possible.
Examples:
sin(x)^2 + cos(x)^2Expected:
1e^(i*pi)Expected:
-1Factor
Factor rewrites expressions into products.
Example:
x^2 - 4Expected:
(x - 2)(x + 2)Expand
Expand rewrites products or powers into expanded form.
Example:
(x + 1)^2Expected:
x^2 + 2*x + 1Solve
Solve finds symbolic solutions when possible.
Example:
x^2 - 4Expected:
x = -2, 2nsolve
nsolve is numerical solving. It uses an initial guess.
Use nsolve when:
- An equation is hard to solve symbolically.
- You want a numeric root near a starting point.
- You know approximately where the answer should be.
Derivative
Derivative computes a symbolic derivative.
Example:
x^2Expected:
2*xIntegral
Integral computes an antiderivative when possible.
Example:
sin(x)Expected:
-cos(x)Limit
Limit evaluates expression behavior near a point.
Example:
sin(x)/xwith approach:
0Expected:
1Matrix Determinant In CAS
CAS can compute a determinant from matrix text.
Accepted forms include:
[[1,2],[3,4]]and:
[1,2],[3,4]Expected determinant:
-2Malformed matrix text should return a clear syntax problem rather than a misleading result.
Complex CAS
CAS supports user-friendly complex notation.
Examples:
i
1i
2i
3+4i
3-4i
i^2
sqrt(-4)
(1+i)^2
e^(i*pi)
cos(pi) + i*sin(pi)Expected results include:
i
i
2i
3 + 4i
3 - 4i
-1
2i
2i
-1
-1The parser treats i as the imaginary unit only when it is actually a complex token. Ordinary names such as sin, limit, initial, and pi are not rewritten as imaginary expressions.
Section 21
Matrix Workspace
The Matrix workspace is for matrix entry and matrix operations.
Use Matrix for:
- Determinant.
- Inverse.
- RREF.
- Rank.
- Trace.
- Transpose.
- Solving
Ax=b. - Eigen operations.
Entering A Matrix
Use the grid editor or paste matrix text when available.
Example:
[1, 2]
[3, 4]or:
[[1,2],[3,4]]Determinant
For:
[[1,2],[3,4]]determinant is:
-2Inverse
The inverse of a square nonsingular matrix can be calculated from the Matrix workspace.
If a matrix is singular, Callie Pro reports that it cannot compute the inverse rather than returning invalid values.
RREF
RREF converts a matrix to reduced row echelon form.
Use it for:
- Solving linear systems.
- Checking rank.
- Understanding row dependencies.
Solve Ax=b
For systems of equations, enter matrix A and vector b, then solve.
The result is shown as variables such as:
x1 = ...
x2 = ...
x3 = ...Eigen
Eigen output can be long, especially for larger matrices. Each matrix result card is meant to be readable, individually copyable, and clearable from history.
Matrix History
Matrix operations create result cards. You can review previous results, copy individual cards, and clear history when you want a fresh workspace.
Clear History removes all Matrix history cards, including long eigen output and error cards.
Section 22
Stats Workspace
The Stats workspace is for descriptive statistics, confidence intervals, and hypothesis tests.
Use Stats when you have data and want summaries or inference.
Common tasks include:
- Enter a dataset.
- Compute summary statistics.
- Run confidence intervals.
- Run hypothesis tests.
- Export dataset CSV.
Dataset Entry
Enter numeric values in the dataset area. Depending on the active tool, values may be separated by lines, commas, or table-style input.
Use clear labels in your own notes so you remember what each dataset represents.
Descriptive Statistics
Stats can summarize a dataset with values such as:
- Count.
- Mean.
- Median.
- Standard deviation.
- Minimum and maximum.
- Quartiles when available.
Confidence Intervals
Confidence intervals estimate a range for a population value from sample data.
Use them when you want a statement such as:
The mean is estimated to be within this range at the selected confidence level.Choose the interval type that matches your data and question.
Hypothesis Tests
Hypothesis tests compare data against a claim or comparison value.
Use them when you want to test questions such as:
- Is the mean different from a target?
- Is a proportion different from a claimed value?
- Is a difference statistically meaningful under the selected assumptions?
Callie Pro reports the relevant test output and keeps the workflow inside the calculator workspace.
Stats Export
Stats datasets can be exported as CSV. On iPad, the export creates a persistent file and opens the standard share sheet so you can save or send it.
Section 23
Python Workspace
The Python workspace lets you write and run small local scripts for numerical work.
It is designed for calculator-style scripts, not for installing packages or building external apps.
Use Python for:
- Numerical checks.
- Small loops.
- Formula exploration.
- Vector calculations.
- Data transformations.
- Generating graph points through supported app bridges.
Script Editor
The script editor is the main text area. It is scrollable, so longer scripts stay inside the editor rather than pushing the workspace around.
Use LTTR for text entry. The directional pad becomes text navigation while LTTR is active.
Helpful keys:
SPCinserts a space.TABinserts indentation.ENTERinserts a newline.DELdeletes text.- Arrows move the cursor.
Running A Script
Tap Run Script to execute the current visible script buffer.
Output appears in the output panel. Errors appear there as well, so you can correct the script without leaving the workspace.

3Python Sandbox Limits
The Python workspace runs locally inside a restricted calculator sandbox.
The sandbox is intended for visible, user-written numerical scripts. It is not designed for:
- Downloading code.
- Installing packages.
- Accessing the network.
- Spawning processes.
- Reading or writing arbitrary files.
- Modifying app features.
If a script attempts something outside the calculator sandbox, Callie Pro blocks it and reports the issue.
Section 24
Catalog And Constants
The Catalog helps you find functions, constants, and insertable terms without memorizing every key layer.
Use Catalog when you need:
- A trig function.
- A logarithm.
- A hyperbolic function.
- Complex functions.
- Constants.
- Engineering values.
- Special functions that are easier to search than type.
Examples of useful entries include:
sin(
cos(
tan(
asin(
acos(
atan(
sqrt(
ln(
log10(
gamma(
gcd(
lcm(Constants and engineering values can help with applied calculations. Use them as references or insert them into compatible fields when available.
Section 25
Exporting Work
Callie Pro can export graph and data artifacts.
Available export types include:
- PNG.
- PDF.
- CSV.
- JSON.
- SVG.
Stats can also export dataset CSV.
On iPad, exports use the standard iPadOS share sheet. The flow is:
- Choose an export type from the File/export controls.
- Callie Pro generates the file.
- The file is saved in the app's
Downloads/CallieProlocation. - The iPadOS share sheet opens.
- Choose Save to Files, AirDrop, Mail, Copy, or another available action.
Canceling the share sheet does not delete the generated file.
PNG Export
PNG exports are image exports of the graph view.
Use PNG when you want:
- A quick visual.
- A web image.
- A screenshot-like graph artifact.
- A file to drop into a document or presentation.
PDF Export
PDF exports include a graph page and report-style context.
Graph PDF reports can include:
- The graph.
- Equations.
- Window settings.
- Annotations.
- Table preview.
Use PDF when you want a more complete saved explanation of the graph.
CSV Export
CSV exports are best for data.
Graph CSV exports can include:
- Graph metadata.
- Equations.
- Window context.
- Table preview.
- Additional workspace sections when relevant.
Use CSV when you want to analyze or archive values outside the app.
JSON Export
JSON exports are structured graph-document data.
Use JSON when you want a machine-readable representation of the graph document.
SVG Export
SVG exports create scalable vector graph output.
SVG is useful for:
- Web graphics.
- Scalable diagrams.
- Design workflows.
- Clean line-art style graph output.
Graph SVG exports include metadata so the file carries more context than only the visible plot.
Section 26
Privacy And Local Data
Callie Pro is built as a local calculator workspace.
Core behavior:
- No account is required.
- Calculations run locally.
- Graph documents are local.
- Matrix, Stats, CAS, and Python workspaces run inside the app.
- Python is sandboxed for calculator-style numerical scripts.
- Exports are generated as files you choose to save or share.
The app does not require a sign-in workflow to use the calculator, graphing, CAS, Matrix, Stats, Python, or export features.
Section 27
Troubleshooting
The graph is blank
Check:
- Is the expression visible?
- Is the expression valid for its graph type?
- Is the window range appropriate?
- Does the expression produce real values in a real graph mode?
- Would Complex Graph mode be more appropriate?
Try:
- Tap
Y=and confirm the expression. - Tap
GRAPH. - Tap
Fit. - Check Table for evaluation messages.
The graph is too small or off-screen
Use Fit.
If the graph still looks wrong:
- Check for extreme values.
- Narrow the window.
- Hide other expressions.
- Reduce 3D mesh complexity if the expression is heavy.
A 3D surface has holes
Holes usually mean some sampled points were invalid or singular.
Examples:
- Division by zero.
- Logarithm branch behavior.
- Infinite or non-finite results.
- Values beyond safe graph limits.
This is often better than drawing misleading spikes.
Temporal playback feels heavy
Try:
- Lowering mesh resolution.
- Hiding nonessential 3D surfaces.
- Using a simpler expression.
- Pausing playback before increasing mesh quality.
- Using Fit before playback starts.
Temporal 3D surfaces can be computationally expensive. Callie Pro uses preview meshes and throttling to keep the app responsive, but very heavy formulas can still take more time.
A CAS result is not what you expected
Check:
- Did you choose the right CAS operation?
- Did you specify the variable?
- For limit, did you set the approach value?
- For nsolve, did you choose a reasonable initial guess?
- Is your matrix syntax valid?
Try simplifying the expression first or testing a smaller expression in the calculator scratch area.
Python did not run
Check:
- Is the script visible in the editor?
- Did you tap
Run Script? - Is there an error message in output?
- Did the script try to use a blocked module or system feature?
Python is intentionally sandboxed. Keep scripts focused on local numerical work.
Matrix operation failed
Check:
- Determinant and inverse require square matrices.
- Inverse requires a nonsingular matrix.
- Solve
Ax=brequires compatible dimensions. - Eigen output may be long for larger matrices.
- Matrix text must be valid rectangular numeric data.
Export did not go where expected
After choosing an export type, use the iPadOS share sheet to decide where the file goes.
If you cancel the share sheet, the generated file still remains in Callie Pro's export location. Run the export again if you want to send it somewhere else.
Section 28
Suggested Learning Path
If you are new to Callie Pro, try this sequence.
1. Basic Graph
Enter:
Y1 = sin(x)Open GRAPH, then TRACE.
Move along the curve with the arrows.
2. Compare Two Functions
Enter:
Y1 = sin(x)
Y2 = 0.2*x^2 - 2Use GRAPH, TABLE, and TRACE.
Try intersection analysis if available for the visible curves.
3. Complex Graph
Create a Complex graph:
z(t) = e^(i*t)
t min = 0
t max = 2*piTrace the path and watch Re, Im, |z|, and arg.
4. 3D Surface
Create a 3D Surface:
z = sin(x)*cos(y)Use Fit, rotate the view, and try mesh or contour controls.
5. Temporal Surface
Create a Temporal 3D Surface:
z = sin(x - t)
t min = 0
t max = 2*piPress Play and observe the wave movement.
6. CAS
Open CAS and try:
sin(x)^2 + cos(x)^2Choose Simplify.
Then try:
x^2 - 4Choose Factor or Solve.
7. Matrix
Open Matrix and enter:
[[1,2],[3,4]]Run determinant and inverse.
8. Stats
Enter a small dataset and compute descriptive statistics. Then try a confidence interval or hypothesis test if it matches your data.
9. Python
Open Python and run:
xs = [-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3]
ys = [x*x - 4 for x in xs]
print(ys)Copy the output, clear it, and try a second script.
10. Export
Return to a graph and export:
- PNG for a quick image.
- PDF for a graph report.
- CSV for table/context data.
- SVG for scalable graph artwork.
- JSON for structured graph document data.
Section 29
Practical Tips
- Use
Y=to define,GRAPHto inspect,TRACEto explore,TABLEto verify, andWINDOWto frame. - Use
Fitwhenever a graph looks lost. - Use Complex Graph mode when a real graph reports complex values.
- Use Temporal graph types only when you want playback.
- Keep heavy 3D meshes lower during playback and higher when paused.
- Use CAS for symbolic work and the calculator scratch area for fast numeric checks.
- Use Matrix for structured linear algebra rather than forcing matrix text through the calculator.
- Use Python for small custom numerical scripts, loops, and data checks.
- Export PDF when you want context, not just an image.
- Export CSV when values matter more than visuals.

Section 31
Closing Note
Callie Pro is meant to feel like a mathematical workspace rather than a stack of separate tools. The graph, calculator shell, CAS, Matrix, Stats, Python, Catalog, and export flows are designed to stay close together so you can move from question to expression to visualization to result without rebuilding your context.
Start with one expression. Trace it. Table it. Change the window. Then try Complex, 3D, Temporal, CAS, Matrix, Stats, and Python as the problem asks for them.
