of
errors you
encounter
Will
be syntax errors. For a complete listing of error
messages, see Appendix

Serial Calculations
The
~ard
allows
.you
to use the results
of
one calculation as part of the
follOWing calculation.
Example:
What is
15%
of
300
*
1S0?
I
eeCE
I
3 0 0
IJ[]
1 5 0
I
ENTER
I
45000
In serial calculations it is not necessary to
retype
your
previous results
but
DO
NOT press the
I
eeCE
I
key
between entries.
'
[K]
.
1 5
I
ENTER
I

Notice
t~at
as
~ou
type in the second calculation
(*.15),
the computer
automatically displays the result of your first calculation at the left of
the screen and includes
it
in the new calculation. In serial calculations
th.e
entry must begin with an operator. As always, you end the entry
With
the
I
ENTER
I
key.
Note:
The
rn
key cannot be used
in
percent calculations in RUN mode
The
rn
key should be used as a character
only.

For example,
4 5 0 0 0
