kOrder of Operations and Levels

Operations are performed in the following order of prec- edence.

1.Functions

2.xy, x1/y, R P, P R, nPr, nCr

3.,

4.,

Operations with the same precedence are performed from left to right, with operations enclosed in parentheses per- formed first. If parentheses are nested, the operaitons en- closed in the innermost set of parentheses are performed first.

Registers L1 through L6 store operations. There are six re- gisters, so calculations up to six levels can be stored.

Each level can contain up to three open parentheses, so parentheses can be nested up to 18 times.

Example: The following operation uses 4 levels and 5 nested parentheses.

2 -OOO 3 + 4 -O O5 +4

The table below shows register contents following the above input.
