Auto-Pasting an Entry or Answer from the History
Area
You can select any entry or answer from the history area and “auto-paste” a duplicate of
it on the entry line. This lets you insert a previous entry or answer into a new expression
without having to retype the previous information.
Why Use Auto-Paste
The effect of using auto-paste is similar to
2 `
and
2 ±
as described in the
previous section, but there are differences.
Note:
You can also paste information by using the
ƒ
toolbar menu.
For entries: Pasting lets you:
2 `
lets you:
Insert any previous
entry into the entry line. Replace the contents of the entry
line with any previous entry.
For answers: Pasting lets you:
2 ±
lets you:
Insert the displayed
value of any
previous answer
into the entry line. Insert the variable ans(1) , which
contains the last answer only.
Each time you enter a calculation,
ans(1) is updated to the latest
answer.
