When execution reaches the end of a statement followed by a display result com-

can resume execution by pressing the w key.

• Note that the final result of a multistatement is always displayed, regardless of
whether it ends with a display result command.
• You cannot construct a multistatement in which one statement directly uses the
result of the previous statement.

k Stacks
When the calculator performs a calculation, it temporarily stores certain information
in memory areas called a “stacks” where it can later recall the information when it is
necessary.
There are actually two stacks: a 10-level numeric stack and a 26-level command
stack. The following example shows how data is stored in the stacks.
A calculation can become so complex that it requires too much stack memory and
cause a stack error (Stk ERROR) when you try to execute it. If this happens, try
simplifying your calculation or breaking it down into separate parts. See “How to
Calculate Memory Usage” for details on how much memory is taken up by various
commands.
