kInputting a Constant

An expression or value that you input without an equal (=) in front of it is called a “constant”, because the value is not affected by anything outside of the cell where it is located.

If you input a math expression as a constant, the cell shows its result. A “Syntax ERROR” will occur if an expression uses an incomplete or illegal syntax, or if its result is a list or matrix.

The following table shows various types of constants and the results they display.

Constant	Displayed Result
2005	2005
7+3	10
sin 30	0.5
sin X+1 *1	1.5
AX *1*2	60
dim {1,2,3}	3
1=0	0
1>0	1
sin	Syntax ERROR
{1,2,3}	Syntax ERROR

*1 When 30 is assigned to variable X and 2 is	*2 A character string like AX is treated as a series
assigned to variable A.	of variables (page 2-2-1).
	To have a character string treated as text, start it
	with a quote mark (").
