Re-using arithmetic operations ++ or ** etc Press the arithmetic operator key twice to re-use an arithmetic operation on a new number. The calculator stores the operation and applies it when you enter another number and press =. Store a calculation for re-use by enclosing it in brackets.

Using memory ´ m r ³ Ô ¡ f e The HP 6S scientific calculator has one independent memory. M is displayed when there is a value in memory. Press Ô to clear the display or cancel the current calculation without clearing the memory. Press ´ to store the displayed value in memory. Press m to add the displayed value to the memory. Press r to retrieve the contents of memory—to determine its value or include it in your calculation. Press I³ to display the contents of memory and replace it with the value that was displayed before the keys were pressed. Press ¡ to clear the display and the memory (solar model).
