This example illustrates a number of important points to be aware of, as follows:
●
The importance of delimiters (such as parentheses)
●
How to enter negative numbers
●
The use of implied versus explicit multiplication.
Parentheses
As the example above shows, parentheses are automatically added to enclose the arguments of functions, as
in LN(). However, you will need to manually add parentheses—by pressing —to enclose a group of
objects you want operated on as a single unit. Parentheses provide a way of avoiding arithmetic ambiguity. In
the example above we wanted the entire numerator divided by –3, thus the entire numerator was enclosed in
parentheses. Without the parentheses, only 14√8 would have been divided by –3.
The following examples show the use of parentheses, and the use of the cursor keys to move outside a group
of objects enclosed within parentheses.
