is
used for the input
buffer
,

is
used in the following
fun
c
tions:
1.
Any information entered through the keyboard
is
stored once in this
buffer
,
thus allowing up
to 80 steps.
2. The display contents
is
stored by the CPU
I
and the CPU II makes selection out of this
da

.
When an
arithmet

entered
,
its
p

is
stored in this buffer by the CPU
I
and the CPU
II
performs operation accord
