Keyboard Operations
Solving Arithmetic Problems
The data entry pad can be used to solve arithmetic problems. The
range of numbers that your HP 250 can handle - or the smallest
through the largest numbers that the machine can print - is
approximately -10 x 10~99 through +10 x In~99.
While the system is computing, the cursor is not shown on the
display. You cannot enter any information from the keyboard
during this time.
Numerical results can appear in 3 forms: integer, decimal, and
scientific notation. Example computations illustrate the 3
output forms:
In t e g e r Re suI t
8+22
30
Decimal Result
4.7+5.7
10.4
Scientific Notation Result
1.93E55*10
1.93000000000E+56
