Error Conditions
If you attempt a calculation containing an improper operation – say division
by zero – the display will show
Error
and a number. To clear an error
message, press any one key. This also restores the display prior to the
Error
display.
The HP-15C has the following error messages. (The description of
Error 2
includes a list of statistical formulas used.)
