Inspection Tools
7–114
•
Previous key –– The key accesses the Previous Results
panel, which lists all of the tools in the toolset edit panel (including the
math tool). When you select one of these tools, it will supply to the
formula its results from the previous inspection.
•
Trig key –– The key accesses the Trig Functions panel, which
lists all of the trigonometry “operators” that are available to a formula.
•
Logical key –– The key accesses the Logical Functions panel,
which lists all of the logical “operators” that are available to a formula.
•
Bit key –– The key accesses the Bit Functions panel, which lists
all of the “bit–wise” logical “operators” that are available to a formula.
•
Stats key –– The key accesses the Stats Functions panel, which
lists all of the statistics “operators” that are available to a formula.
•
Misc key –– The key accesses the Misc Functions panel, which
lists several miscellaneous “operators” that are available to a formula.
NOTE: You can type a formula, or edit any part of one, using only the
character keys on the keyboard. If you do, however, you must use exactly
the same format (the same brackets, spacing, case, and so on) that appears
when you select a formula function using the panels.
The third row keys enter math and logical operators directly into a formula.
Here is a brief description of the third row keys:
•
Add key –– The key enters an add (+) symbol in the formula, which
causes the right operand to be added to the left operand.
•
Subtract key –– The key enters a subtract (
*) symbol in the
formula, which causes the right operand to be subtracted from the left
operand.
•
Multiply key –– The key enters a multiply (✲) symbol in the
formula, which causes the left operand to be multiplied by the right
operand.
•
Divide key –– The key enters a divide (
ń) symbol in the formula,
which causes the left operand to be divided by the right operand.
•
Greater than key –– The key is used to enter a “greater than” (
u)
symbol between two values in a formula. It produces a logic “1” result if
the left operand is greater than the right operand; otherwise, it produces a
logic “0” result.
•
Less than key –– The key is used to enter a “less than” (
t) symbol
between two values in a formula. It produces a logic “1” result if the left
operand is less than the right operand; otherwise, it produces a logic “0”
result.
