The Calculator screen behaves exactly like any other

RPN-format calculator. It consists of a stack that can

contain any number of values and buttons that perform
various operations. When a value is being entered from

the keypad, it is displayed in a special area called the

active area. This value is then place in Level 1 of the
stack after tapping the Enter key.
Tapping a button on the display performs the
corresponding operation on either the last value in the

display, or the last two values, depending on the

operation. Each button is explained below where the
value in Level 1 is x and the value in Level 2 is y.
+: Adds x and y.
÷: Divides y by x.

−: Subtracts y from x.
×: Multiplies x and y.
↵: Moves the active value to Level 1 of the stack, or duplicates Level 1

if there is no active value.
Swap: Swaps positions of x and y in the stack.
Drop: Drops (removes) x from the stack.
Edit: Moves the value in Level 1 to the active area where it can be

edited.

±: Changes the sign of x.
1/x: Inverse of x.
