5. More Variables: Single Value Variables and
LIST Variables
Additional single value variables (from
A to Z, and
θ
) may be accessed. In addition, six
LIST variables (from
L1 to L6) are readily accessible through the second function.
To save a list of numbers, follow the procedure below:
1. On the Calculation screen (
#
), create a list of numbers (“1, 2, 3”,
in this example). Separate numbers with a comma (
,
), and group
the numbers with braces (
{
and
}
).
2. Press
R
, then select one of
the six LIST variables. To store the
list in “L1”, press
@
1
to
call up the LIST variable.
3. Pressing
E
will store the list
in the LIST variable. Note that
this procedure will overwrite the
list previously stored in the LIST
variable.
Refer to Chapter 7 “LIST Features” to learn more about how LIST
variables can be utilized.
6. TOOL Menu
The
TOOL menu contains items to help calculating in different number systems, as well
as to help solve both linear and polynomial equation. Press
@
V
to access the
TOOL menu. Press the
#
key (or
@
q
) to escape from the menu.
A NBASE
Calculations can be performed in different number base systems, while
simultaneously converting the calculation result into hexadecimal,
decimal, octal, and binary systems.
1. While this menu item
A NBASE is
selected, press the
E
key. The
NBASE tool opens, with the cursor
set at
HEX: (hexadecimal).
