Basic Programming Steps
# If there are no programs stored in memory
when you enter the PRGM mode, the
message “No Programs” appears on the
display and only the NEW item (3) is shown
in the function menu.
# The values to the right of the program list
indicate the number of bytes used by each
program.
#A file name can be up to eight characters
long.
# The following are the characters you can use in
a file name:
A through Z, r,
θ
, spaces, [, ], {, }, ’, ”, ~,
0 through 9, ., +, –, ×, ÷
# Registering a file name uses 32 bytes of
memory.
# The file name input screen remains on the
display if you press w without inputting a file
name.
#To exit the file name input screen and return to
the program list without registering a file name,
press J.
