Changing

the

Format

of

Numeric

Data

This

system

is

quite

capable

of

handling

fractional

numbers,

though

it

displays

the

result

in

decimal

notation.

Fractional

numbers

may

even

be

typed

in

the

Input

Area

as

fractions,

but

they

will

still

be

displayed

on

the

grid

as

decimals.

The

sys-

tem

correctly

stores

their

values.

The

word

processor

is

not

set

to

display

decimal

digits

by

default.

However,

you

may

modify this

using

the

format

function

to

display

up

to

five

digits.

This

function

also

allows

you

to

display

dollar

figures

with

a

dollar

symbol

and

two

decimal

places.

It

also

can

display

percentage

data

with

the

percentage

symbol

to

a

spec-

ified

number

of

decimal

places,

again,

up

to

five.

To

use

the

format

function,

proceed

as

follows:
