Answers to Common Questions

Q: How can I determine if the calculator is operating properly?

A: Refer to page A–5, which describes the diagnostic self–test.

Q:My numbers contain commas instead of periods as decimal points. How do I restore the periods?

A: Use the {)} function (page 1–18).

Q: How do l change the number of decimal places in the display?

A: Use the

menu (page 1–19).

Q: How do I clear all or portions of memory?

A: {cdisplays the CLEAR menu, which allows you to clear all variables, all programs (in program entry only), the statistics registers, or all of user memory (not during program entry).

Q: What does an "E" in a number (for example, ).) mean?

A: Exponent of ten; that is, 2.51 ⋅ 10–13.

Q: The calculator has displayed the message & ". What should I do?
