General calculations
To perform a calculation in the Desk calculator:
1. Enter your calculation using the number and operator
buttons (+, -, × and ÷) on screen or the keyboard. There
is no operator precedence in the Desk view: all calculations
are performed as you type them in. So, 10+5×3=45, not
25.
2. Tap = or press Enter to get the result.
• Use +/- or the m key to change the sign of a number.
• Tap the Shortcuts button in the Toolbar to display a list of
shortcut keypresses.
• To clear the calculation line without ending the current
calculation, press C.
• To clear the calculation line and end the current calculation,
tap AC or press Esc.
The till roll keeps a record of your calculations so that you can
refer back to work you did earlier. The till roll scrollbar will
appear when the calculations cover more than one page. To
move around the till roll, use the scrollbar or the arrow keys. To
clear the till roll, tap the Clear tillroll button on the Toolbar or
use the command on the Tools menu.
You can switch to the embedded numeric keypad (orange print)
by pressing Shift + Menu.

command.
• To add the current number to the number in the
