r.
The simple, old-fashioned math notation helps
explain
how
to
use your calculator. Both numbers are always positioned
in the
stack in
the
natural order first
;
then the operation is executed
when
the function key is pressed.
There
are
110
exceptions to
this rule
.
Subtraction, multiplication,
and
division work the
same way
.
In each case,
the
data must be
in
the proper position
before the operation can be performed
.
