Chapter 5: Lists 81 Entering List Elements A named list accepts two types of elements: numerical and text. • Lists that contain numerical elements not enclosed in quotation marks are called numerical lists. • Lists that contain text elements or numerical elements whose numerical values are ignored (because they are enclosed in quotation marks) are called categorical lists. To enter an element, highlight the space in the column under the list name where you want the element to be entered (you can’t skip any spaces) and type in the element (it is displayed on the entry line). Press b or # to move the element into the list. Pressing # or b also moves the cursor to the next element space. Access the quotation marks (for categorical lists) from the Text editor (- t ). Numerical Lists Numerical lists contain real numbers, fractions, or expressions that evaluate to real numbers or fractions. If you enter an expression like sin(30), the calculator displays the decimal equivalent in the list element space. The Numeric Notation, Decimal Notation, and Angle modes determine how the calculator displays all elements, except fractions. ³ Define ¨NUM={18,25,45}. 1. Go to the first element space of the numerical list ¨NUM. 3 " (as necessary) # (if necessary)
