Using Multi-statements in
Calculations
A multi-statement is a statement that is made up of multiple calculation expressions
separated by special separator codes (: and
^). The following examples show how the two
separator codes differ from each other.
{expression 1} : {expression 2} : .... : {expression n }
Pressing
E executes each expression in sequence, starting with {expression 1} and
ending with the fi nal expression in the series. After that, the result of the fi nal expression
appears on the display.
Example: To perform the calculation 123 + 456, and then subtract its result from 1000
b
123+4561!(:)
1000-1-(Ans)
E
{expression 1} ^ {expression 2} ^ .... ^ {expression n }
In this case, pressing
E starts execution starting with {expression 1}. When execution
reaches a ^ separator, execution pauses and the calculation result up to that point appears
on the display. Pressing
E again will resume execution from the expression below the ^
separator.
Example: To display the result of the calculation 123 + 456, and then subtract it from 1000
b
123+4561x(^)
1000-1-(Ans)
