Abstract

An electronic thermometer comprising a sensing member for sensing a temperature to be taken thereby, a storage member for storing therein a measured value representing the sensed temperature by a sensing member, a prediction member for computing a predicted value S(t) based on the measured value T(t) stored in a storage member, a display member for displaying the measured value or the predicted value, and a judging member for determining whether or not a response value, of a response curve based on the measured data, has attained a predetermined value so as to initiate an operation for changing a state of the display member.
