Replay Function
The Replay Function lets you edit the contents of a previously performed
calculation and execute it again.
Pressing B or C will display the last calculation you performed so you can edit it.
• In the Math input/output mode, use the D key to display the calculation you want
to edit, and then B or C.
Example: To execute the calculation
5
2
+ 8
