During program execution, the user assigns (and edits, as necessary) numerical values to each item. To assign a value, enter the value using the number keys, and then press b or #. Long values do not wrap; they scroll off the screen, and an ellipsis (…) is displayed. Use " and ! to scroll the whole value. Use $ and # to move between menu items as necessary. :SetMenu("title","item1",variable1[,"item2",variable2,…]) The menu title is enclosed in quotation marks (" ") and can have up to 16 characters. Up to seven menu items (also enclosed in quotation marks) follow. During program execution, the menu displays the first 10 characters of item. Each item needs a corresponding variable where the entered value is stored. The values you enter for the variables (assigned to the menu items) are stored in the calculator’s memory. Also, if you assign to a menu item a variable that has been previously defined in the calculator’s memory, that value displays when you first execute the program. Press - l to exit the menu and end program execution.
