Getting started
1-23
When you highlight a previous input or result (by pressing
), the
and
menu labels appear.
To copy a previous
line
Highlight the line (press
) and press
. The
number (or expression) is copied into the edit line.
To reuse the last
result
Press
ANS
(last answer) to put the last result from the
HOME display into an expression.
ANS
is a variable that
is updated each time you press
.
To repeat a
previous line
To repeat the very last line, just press
. Otherwise,
highlight the line (press
) first, and then press
.
The highlighted expression or number is re-entered. If the
previous line is an expression containing the
ANS
, the
calculation is repeated iteratively.
Example
See how
ANS
retrieves and reuses the last result
(50), and
updates
ANS
(from 50 to 75 to 100).
50
25
You can use the last result as the first expression in the edit
line without pressing
ANS
.
Pressing , , ,
or
, (or other operators that require a preceding
argument) automatically enters
ANS
before the operator.
You can reuse any other expression or value in the HOME
display by highlighting the expression (using the arrow
keys), then pressing
. See “Using previous results”
on page 1-22 for more details.
The variable
ANS
is different from the numbers in HOME’s
display history. A value in
ANS
is stored internally with the
full precision of the calculated result, whereas the
displayed numbers match the display mode.
