Arithmetic
The
s
and
R
keys can also be used with variables. For example,
s
+
(in the MU%C menu) stores the rightmost number from the
display into the variable
M%C
.
R
+
copies the contents of
M%C
into the calculator line. If there is an expression in the display
(such as
$)+!
), then the recalled number replaces only the last
number.
You do not need to clear storage registers before using them. By storing
a number into a register, you overwrite whatever existed there before.
Doing Arithmetic Inside Registers and Variables
You can also do arithmetic inside storage registers.
