Manual Solutions
Run through the following two-number calculations. It is not necessary to
clear the calculator between problems. If you enter a digit incorrectly, press
to undo the mistake, then key in the correct number.
To Compute
Keystrokes
9 - 6 = 3
9 v 6 -
9 × 6 = 54
9 v 6 *
9 ÷ 6 = 1.5
9 v 6 ÷
9
6
= 531,441
9 v 6 Y
Notice that in the four examples:
Both numbers are in the calculator before you press the function key.
v is used only to separate two numbers that are keyed in one
after the other.
Pressing a numeric function key, in this case - * ÷ or Y,
executes the function immediately and displays the result.
To see the close relationship between manual and programmed problem
solving, let's first calculate the solution to a problem manually, that is, from
the keyboard. Then we'll use a program to calculate the solution to the same
problem with different data.
