Percentage functions
These functions are used to calculate percentages and related values as
follows:
% (y,x) : calculates the x percentage of y
%CH(y,x) : calculates 100(y-x)/x, i.e., the percentage change, the
difference between two numbers.
%T(y,x) : calculates 100 x/y i.e., the percentage total, the portion
that one number (x) is of another (y).
These functions require two arguments, we illustrate the calculation of
%T(15,45), i.e., calculation 15% of 45, next. We assume that the calculator
is set to ALG mode, and that system flag 117 is set to
CHOOSE boxes. The
