The Stack

The stack

is

a series of

memory storage

locations for numbers and

other

objects.

The locations are called

levels

1,

2, 3,

etc. The number

of levels

changes

according to how many

objects

are stored

on the

stack—from none to hundreds.

As

you

enter

new

numbers or other objects on the stack, the stack

grows to accommodate them: the new data moves into level 1, and

older data is '‘bumpecr to higher levels. As you use data from the

stack, the number of levels decreases as the data, moves down to lower
levels.

The stack display shows level 1 and up to three additional levels.
Any additional levels are maintained in memory, but normally aren’t

displayed.

For more information about the stack and command line, see “Using

the Stack for Calculations’’ on page 3-1.
