Using Multi-statements in

Calculations

A multi-statement is a statement that is made up of multiple calculation expressions separated by special separator codes (: and ^). The following examples show how the two separator codes differ from each other.

{expression 1} : {expression 2} : .... : {expression n}

Pressing E executes each expression in sequence, starting with {expression 1} and ending with the final expression in the series. After that, the result of the final expression appears on the display.

Example: To perform the calculation 123 + 456, and then subtract its result from 1000

b

123+4561!(:)1000-1-(Ans)

E

{expression 1} ^ {expression 2} ^ ....

^ {expression n}

In this case, pressing E starts execution starting with {expression 1}. When execution reaches a ^ separator, execution pauses and the calculation result up to that point appears on the display. Pressing E again will resume execution from the expression below the ^ separator.

Example: To display the result of the calculation 123 + 456, and then subtract it from 1000

b

123+4561x(^)

1000-1-(Ans)
