Numeric values with 12 digits for a mantissa and 2 digits for an exponent can
be stored in the Ans memory. The Ans memory is not cleared even if the power
of the unit is turned off. Each time © is pressed, the value in the Ans memory
is replaced with the value produced by the new calculation. When execution of
a calculation results in an error, however, the Ans memory retains its current value.
When a value is stored to another memory using the © key, that value is not stored
in the Ans memory.
