The Automatic Memory Stack
For
example, you
could
work
the problem
above
by beginning
at
the left
side of
the equation
and simply working through
it
in
left-to-right order.
All
problems
cannot
be
solved
using left-to-
right order,
however,
and
the best
order
for
solving any prob-
lem is to begin
with
the innermost parentheses
and work out-
ward. So, to
solve
the problem
above:

Constant Arithmetic
You may have noticed that whenever the
stack
drops
because
of a
two-number
operation (not
because of
mJ
),
the number
in the T-register is reproduced there
.
This
stack operation
can
be
used to insert
a oonstant
into
a
problem
.
