The Summation Function ()

The Σ function does summation calculations in an equation:

^Lcounter variable I starting value I ending value I step size I algebraic expressionT

The counter variable takes on a series of values, beginning with the starting value, and incrementing according to the step size, until it passes the ending value. For each value of the counter, the algebraic expression is evaluated, and the value is added to the previous value. The Σ function returns the final summation.

For example, when the equation:

FH2;HF8^L;I#I'I#I;BX\;T"

is solved for SERIES, the counter I runs from 1 through 6 in steps of one that is, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. For each value I, the expression ;BX\; is
