, first in RPN mode and then in ALG mode.
In ALG mode, the infix operators are
,
,
,
, and
. The other two
argument operations use function notation of the form f(x,y), where x and y are the
first and second operands in order. In RPN mode, the operands for
t
wo argument
operations are entered in the order Y, then X on the stack. That is, y is the value in
the y-register and x is the value in the x-register.
The x
th
root of y (
'
) is the exception to this rule. For example, to calculate
in
RPN mode, press
'
. In ALG mode, the equivalent
operation is keyed in as
'
Õ
.
As with the single argument operations, some of the two argument operations
display differently in RPN mode than in ALG mode. These differences are
summarized in the table below.
