The Key
When
d
(roll down) is pressed the number in each
stack register is copied into the register below, and the
number formerly in the X-re
g
ister is copied into the
T-register.
Pressing
d
four times successively displays the numbers in the Y-, Z-, and
T-registers and returns the numbers to their original registers.
One-Number Functions and the Stack
One-number mathematics and number-alteration functions —
y
,
r
,
°
,

,
¡
,
e
,
B
,
Ñ
, and
T
— use only the number in the displayed X-register.
When the key is pressed, the function is performed upon the number in the
X-register, and the answer is then placed into the X-register. The stack does not lift,
so the number formerly in the X-register does not get copied into the Y-register; but
this number is copied into the LAST X register. The numbers in the Y-, Z-, and
T-registers are not affected when a one number function is performed.
Two-Number Functions and the Stack
Two-number functions —

z
,
q
,
b
,
à
, and
Z
— use the
numbers in both the X- and the Y-registers.
