To edit the elements of a matrix variable:

1.Press (MATRIX)(Data), and then, on the menu that appears, select the matrix variable you want to edit.

2.Use the Matrix Editor that appears to edit the elements of the matrix.

•Move the cursor to the cell that contains the element you want to change, input the new value, and then press .

To copy matrix variable (or MatAns) contents:

1.Use the Matrix Editor to display the matrix you want to copy.

•If you want to copy MatA, for example, perform the following key operation: (MATRIX)(Data)(MatA).

•If you want to copy MatAns contents, perform the following to display the MatAns screen: (MATRIX)(MatAns).

2.Press =(STO), and then perform one of the following key operations to specify the copy destination: (MatA), (MatB), or @(MatC).

•This will display the Matrix Editor with the contents of the copy destination.
