Repeat Entry
Allows you to perform multiple operations with the same operand. For exam-
ple, to add 5 seven times you can enter 5 and then hit the + six times and hit =.
Without this mode, you must hit the 5 followed by a + six times and then hit 5
followed by =.
Swap + and Enter
Allows you to swap the + and the Enter keys on the number pad. This is for us-
ers who are most comfortable with a 10 key where you use the pinky to add.
