As shown above, the value or expression to the right of the cursor after
1Y(INS) are pressed becomes the argument of the function that is
specified next. The range encompassed as the argument is everything up
to the first open parenthesis to the right, if there is one, or everything up to
the first function to the right (sin(30), log2(4), etc.)
This capability can be used with the following functions: ', &, 1
6( "), 1l( $), 1i( %), !, 6, 1!( #), D.
Overwrite Input Mode
You can select either insert or overwrite as the input mode, but only while
Linear Display is selected. In the overwrite mode, text you input replaces the
text at the current cursor location. You can toggle between the insert and
overwrite modes by performing the operations: 1Y(INS). The cursor
I
appears as "
" in the insert mode and as " " in the overwrite mode.
Note: Natural Display always uses the insert mode, so changing display
format from Linear Display to Natural Display will automatically switch to
the insert mode.
Correcting and Clearing an Expression
To delete a single character or function: Move the cursor so it is directly to
the right of the character or function you want to delete, and then press Y.
In the overwrite mode, move the cursor so it is directly under the character
or function you want to delete, and then press Y.
To insert a character or function into a calculation: Use d and e to
move the cursor to the location where you want to insert the character or
function and then input it. Be sure always to use the insert mode if Linear
Display is selected.
To clear all of the calculation you are inputting: Press A.

Recurring Decimal Calculations

Your calculator uses a recurring decimal when you input a value. Calculation
results also can be displayed using recurring decimal form whenever
applicable.
Inputting a Recurring Decimal
When inputting a recurrent decimal, press a!( k ) before inputting its
period (repetend) and then input the period up to the ending value. To input
the recurring decimal 0.909090.... (0.90), perform the following operation:
"0 .a!( k ) 90".
Important: • If the value starts with an integer part (like: 12.3123123...), do
not include the integer part when inputting the period (12.312). • Recurring
decimal input is possible only when Natural Display is selected.
