When w, the third sequential equation set is entered, it can also

be compared with the two other equations; simply set the TYPE

under the FORMAT menu to either 4 uw to compare the first set

Note: Comparing a sequence with an empty set will result in an

error. If the v set is to be used, then the equation entry rows

will need to have appropriate entries.
