Using the Basic Calculator buttons
The Basic Calculator includes the following buttons.
Clears the last number you entered. Use this button if you make a mistake while entering a number in the middle of a calculation. This button enables you to re- enter the number without starting the calculation over.
Clears the entire calculation and enables you to begin a fresh calculation.
Toggles the current number between a negative and positive value. If you want to enter a negative number, enter the number first and then press the +/- button.
Places the current number in memory. Each new number you enter with the M+ button is added to the total already stored in memory. You can add either a calculated value or a number you enter by pressing the number buttons. Pressing this button has no effect on the current calculation (or series of calculations); it merely places the value into memory until it is recalled.
