press the following keys to see the contents of the variables:
Algebraic mode
Type these keystrokes: J@@z1@@ ` @@@R@@ `@@@Q@@@ `. At this point, the
screen looks as follows:
RPN mode
In RPN mode, you only need to press the corresponding soft menu key
label to get the contents of a numerical or algebraic variable. For the case
under consideration, we can try peeking into the variables z1, R, Q, A12,
α, created above, as follows: J@@z1@@ @@@R@@ @@@Q@@ @@A12@@ @@»@@
At this point, the screen looks like this:
Using the right-shift key followed by soft menu key labels
In Algebraic mode, you can display the content of a variable by pressing
J@ and then the corresponding soft menu key. Try the following
examples:
J‚@@p1@@ @@z1@@ @@@R@@ @@@Q@@ @@A12@@
NOTE: In RPN mode, you don’t need to press @ (just J and then
the corresponding soft menu key.)
