L (Negation) L (negation, ·) returns the negative of a number, expression, or list. The narrow negation symbol (L) distinguishes negation from the subtraction or minus (-). Lvalue EOS rules (Chapter 1) determine when negation is evaluated. For example, LA2 returns a negative number because squaring is evaluated before negation. Use parentheses to square a negated number, (LA)2. ABS ABS (absolute value, 2 P) returns the absolute value of a number, expression, or list. ABS value p (Pi) Pi (2 T) is stored as a constant in the TI-80. Press 2 T to copy the symbol p to the cursor location. The number 3.141592654 is displayed for p, but 3.1415926535898 is used internally in calculations. 2-6 Math, Angle, and Test Operations
