Correcting
Errors
in
Data
Entry
If you make a mistake in entering statistical data, delete the incorrect
data
and
add the correct data. Even if only one value of an x, y-pair is
incorrect, you must delete and then reenter both values.
To
correct
statistical
data:
1.
Reenter the incorrect data,
but
instead of pressing
12+1,
press
Biz-1.
This deletes
the
value(s)
and
decrements n.
2. Enter
the
correct value(s) using I2+1.
If the incorrect values were the ones just entered, you can simply
press
111
lastx | to retrieve them, then BUEI to delete them. (The in
correct y-value was still in the Y-register, and its x-value was saved in
the
LASTx register.)
Example.
Key in the x, y-values on the left, then make the correc
tions shown on the right.
