Multi-command calculations

Because the result of a calculation is retained on the stack, you can easily

perform complex calculations by accumulating the results of sub­

calculations on the stack and then treating these results as the arguments

m a fmther calculation.

Example:

To calculate

13^

-

(17

x

19) + |

1. Enter 1300.

The result—169—appears on level 1 of the stack.

2. Enter 17 and press (ENTER).

3. Enter 19 and press (ENT0.

4. Press ®.

The product of 17 and 19—323—appears on level 1, and the previous
result—169—is now level 2.

5. Press

Q.

The two previous results—169—and 323—are now treated as the
arguments in a fmther operation. This operation replaces the

arguments with the result of the operation, that is, the difference

between the fust result and the second.
