!"# If you want to do further calculation on a result you ve just found, and that result is the first number in the expression you now want to evaluate, you can simply continue the expression. For example, if you ve calculated a result of 3.647483, and you want to multiply by 16, press [ ] [1] [6] [EXE]. If, on the other hand, you want to take the square root of that number, press [SHIFT] [x 2 ] { } and then [SHIFT] [(-)] {Ans} [EXE] to calculate 3. 647483. You can also recall and edit a previous expression. Press [AC /ON ] to clear the screen, and use the up-arrow to scroll through previously input expressions until you find the one you would like to edit. Once you have recalled the expression, you can use the right- and leftarrows and enter replacement characters. To delete characters press [DEL], and to insert new characters press [SHIFT] [DEL] {INS}. When you are finished, press [EXE] to recalculate the revised expression.!$ %" The command [SHIFT] [(-)] {Ans} on the calculator allows you to use the result of your last calculation in your next calculation. Also, if you press [EXE] without pressing another key, the calculator will recompute the last expression. Combining these two features allows you to perform on-screen recursion, calculating a new number by repeating the operation using the result of the previous calculation. You can create patterns of numbers (sequences) using the following procedure: a. Enter the starting number of your sequence and press [EXE]. b. Enter an expression using Ans. You can get Ans by pressing any of the operation keys, such as [+], [-], [ ], [ ], [^], or [x 2 ] or by pressing [SHIFT] [(-)] {Ans}. c. Press [EXE] for the result (the second term of the sequence). d. Press [EXE] repeatedly to generate successive terms in the sequence.

Press the function key for the recursion formula type you want to set. For linear recursion between two terms, press [F2]. Input a recursion formula and generate a table. For example, u 1 = 47 (or a 1 = 47) u n = 2u n-1 8 where n 2 (or a n+1 = 2a n 8 where n 1) Press [2] [F4] (n,an ) [F2] (a n ) [-] [8] [EXE] to enter the recursive formula. Press [F5] (RANG) [F2] to display the table range settings. Enter a starting value of 1 and an ending value of 10 to specify the range of values for n. Also, set the initial value (a 1 ) as 47. Press [EXE] or [EXIT] to return to the Recursion Menu. Press [F6] to view the table containing the first 10 terms of the sequence. Use the arrow keys to scroll through the table. If you would like to generate a table for two recursive sequences at a time, simply enter a second recursive formula for b n+1. When the table is generated, it will include values for both sequences. You can change the initial value of the sequence by changing the value of a 1 or the recursive formula by changing the value of a n+1. 7
