NUMBERS
Numbers are keyed in as written using the decimal point key to define the position of the decimal point in
the number, if any. The decimal point key is not necessary for numbers without a fractional part.
CHG SIGN is used to make a postive number negative, or a negative number positive.
DATES
Dates are entered just like numbers, using the decimal point key to separate the month from the day-of-
the-month:
Month -
Enter 1 or 2 digits, not to exceed "12" for December.
Day
-
Enter 2 digits, not to exceed "31". If the day if from the first to the ninth (only one
digit), enter a leading zero to fill in the first digit.
Year
-
Enter 4 digits, the century and the year.
or
-
Enter 2 digits, the last two digits fo the year. When the century digits are not entered,
TRADER II assumes the date is a valid date between January 1, 1970 and
December 31, 2069.
For example, enter the number of the month, a decimal point, a "two digit" day and the last "two digits" of
the year. "Two digit" means that the day and year must take up two pleaces. If the day or year is less
than 10, add a leading zero.
