Finally, press the keys that we used above to solve the problem manually. Do not
key in 200; this number will vary each time the program is used. Don't be
concerned right now about what appears in the display as you press the keys;
we'll discuss that later in this section.

Running a Program

To run (sometimes called "execute") a program:
1. Press fs to set the calculator back to Run mode. If the calculator is
already in Run mode (that is, the PRGM status indicator in the display is
not lit), skip this step.
2. Key any required data into the calculator, just as if you were calculating
manually. When a program is run, it uses the data already keyed into the
display and the registers inside the calculator.
3. Press t to begin program execution.
