Lists

You can do list operations in HOME and in programs. A
list consists of comma-separated real or complex
numbers, expressions, or matrices, all enclosed in braces.
A list may, for example, contain a sequence of real
numbers such as

{1,2,3}. (If the Decimal Mark mode is

set to

Comma, then the separators are periods.) Lists

represent a convenient way to group related objects.

There are ten list variables available, named L0 to L9. You
can use them in calculations or expressions in HOME or
in a program. Retrieve the list names from the VARS
menu, or just type their names from the keyboard.

You can create, edit, delete, send, and receive named
lists in the List catalog (

LIST

). You can also create

and store lists—named or unnnamed—in HOME lists

List variables are identical in behaviour to the columns
C1.C0 in the Statistics aplet. You can store a statistics
column to a list (or vice versa) and use any of the list
functions on the statistics columns, or the statistics
functions, on the list variables.
