0.13 Memory and stored variables
The TI-
30X Plus MathPrint™ has eight memory variables,
, , , , , ,
x y z t a b c
and
d
.
Press
x
to store a variable and press
z
to select the variable to store.
Press
n
to store the value in the selected variable.
z
is a multi-tap key that cycles through the variables
, , , , , ,
x y z t a b c
and
d
.
Press
to recall and use the stored values for these variables. The variable, say
y
, is
inserted into the current entry and the value assigned to
y
is used to evaluate the
expression.
To recall values of variables, press
q
≤
to display a menu of variables and their stored
values. Select the variable you wish to recall and press
n
. The value assigned to the
variable is inserted into the current entry and used to evaluate the expression.
Press
q
≠
and select
1: Yes
to clear all variable values.
