Variables
will
retain
their
assigned values even
if
the machine
is
turned
OFF
or
undergoes
an
AUTO
OFF.
Variables
are
lost
only
when:
*
You
assign
a new value
to
the
same
variable.
*
You
type
in
CLEAR
(ENTER)
(not
the CLear key).
*
You
clear the machine using the
ALL
RESET
button.
* The batteries
are
changed.
There
are
certain
limitations
on the assignment
of
variables, and certain programming procedures which
cause
them
to
be
changed.
See
Chapter 4
for
a discussion
of
assignment.
See
Chapter 5
for
a discussion
of
the
use
of
variables in programming.
Chained Calculations
In
addition
to
combining
several operators in one calculation, the PC-3 also allows
you
to
perform
several calculations one after
the
other
-
without
having
to
press
(ENTER)
before moving on.
You
must separate the equations
with
commas.
Only
the result
of
the
final
calculation
is
displayed. (Remember,
too, that
the
maximum
line length accepted by the
computer
is
80 characters,
including
(ENTER)
.)
You
wonder
how
much
money
would
have been available
for
rooms
if
you
had
kept
to
your
original allocation
of
15%
for
the
awards
dinner:
