If you press an operator key after completing a calculation, the calculation is continued.
Calculations in Chain Mode
Calculations in Chain mode are interpreted in the order in which they are entered. For
example, entering the following numbers and operations as written from left to right,
J1GPD4, returns 9. If you press an operator key, 1,A,P, or
a, after 4, the calculation is continued using the currently displayed value.
You can do chain calculations without using 4 after each step.
Without clearing, now calculate 4 + 9 × 3.
In Chain mode, if you wish to override the left to right order of entry, use parentheses
\q and \n to prioritize operations.
