Arithmetic with Stored Variables

Storage arithmetic and recall arithmetic allow you to do calculations with a
number stored in a variable without recalling the variable into the stack. A
calculation uses one number from the X–register and one number from the
specified variable.

Storage Arithmetic

Storage arithmetic uses

H

,

H

„

,

H

y

, or

H

p

to do

arithmetic in the variable itself and to store the result there. It uses the value in
the X–register and does riot affect the stack.

New value of variable = Previous value of variable {+, –,

} x.

For example, suppose you want to reduce the value in A(15) by the number in
the X–register (3, displayed). Press

H

„

A. Now A = 12, while 3 is still

in the display.
