Backspace; erases the character before the cursor.

C

Clear; clears the calculator line. (When the calculator

 

is off, this key turns the calculator on, but without

 

clearing anything.)

@c

This clears all information in the current work area

 

(menu). For example, it will erase all the numbers in

 

a list if you are currently viewing a list (SUM or

 

CFLO). In other menus (like TVM), @cclears

 

all of the values that have been stored. In SOLVE, it

 

can delete all equations.

 

 

The cursor (  ) is visible while you are keying in a number or doing a calculation. When the cursor is visible, pressing < deletes the last character you keyed in. When the cursor is not visible, pressing < erases the last number.
