Constants and Measurement Units
266
From the Keyboard
If you know the abbreviation that the TI-89 Titanium uses for a particular constant or unit,
you can type it directly from the keyboard. For example:
256_m
•
The first character must be an underscore (
_
). For
_
, press:
8
5
•
A space or a multiplication symbol (
†
) before the underscore is optional. For
example,
256_m, 256 _m
, and
256
†
_m
are equivalent.
•
However, if you are adding units to a variable, you must put a space or
†
before the
underscore. For example,
x_m
is treated as a variable, not as x with a unit.
Note:
You can type units in either uppercase or lowercase characters.

an existing category, it is listed in the

The selected unit is placed in the entry line.
Constant and unit names always begin with
an underscore ( _ ).
You can also move
the cursor by typing
the first letter of a
unit.
