Correcting Mistakes with LAST X Wrong Single Argument Function If you execute the wrong single argument function, use to retrieve the number so you can execute the correct function. (Press first if you want to clear the incorrect result from the stack.) Since and don't cause the stack to drop, you can recover from these functions in the same manner as from single argument functions. Example: Suppose that you had just computed ln 4.7839 × (3.879 × 105) and wanted to find its square root, but pressed by mistake. You don't have to start over! To find the correct result, press . Mistakes with Two Argument Functions If you make a mistake with a two argument operation (such as , ), or x), you can correct it by using and the inverse of the two argument operation. 1. Press to recover the second number (x just before the operation). 2. Execute the inverse operation. This returns the number that was originally first. The second number is still in the LAST X register. Then: If you had used the wrong function, press again to restore the original stack contents. Now execute the correct function. If you had used the wrong second number, key in the correct one and execute the function. If you had used the wrong first number, key in the correct first number, press to recover the second number, and execute the function again.
