This advice works for any business calculator that has these functions
and was for general information on doing time and money calculations. I
have no idea if this type of functionality is built into the Newton
equations as I have never used them. A better model may be Excel, where
each function stands alone. However, the same rule applies, you need at
least three inputs to get the output.
