This command is generally useless. Its supposed use is to convert numbers into decimal form, but any typed fractions are displayed as decimals anyway.<br />

1/3►Dec<br />
.3333333333<br />
<br />
In 2.53 MP or higher, typed fractions are displayed in fraction form. Therefore, the ►Dec command is useful in this case.<br />

<br />
For the non-generic errors that might occur when using this command (that is, syntax-type errors shouldn't be included). In a format similar to the following:<br />
<br />
* '''[[TI-BASIC:Errors#D|ERR:DIM MISMATCH]]''' is thrown if the two list arguments have different dimensions.<br />
* '''[[TI-BASIC:Errors#R|ERR:RESERVED]]''' is thrown if L_RESID is supplied as an argument. --><br />
