    Keyboard Features of the Keyboard Shifted Keys Figure 1 Calculator Keyboard • Cursor keys have only a yellow shift function. • Most keys have three functions: one printed in white, a yellow- shifted-function printed above the key, and a blue-shifted function printed on the angled face of the key (See Figure 2).
  • Page 8: Alpha Keys

    Figure 2 Key Diagram Left-shifted function Letter for alphabetic Right-shifted function Alpha Keys Keys with a pink letter displayed on the bottom right corner are alpha keys, used commonly to enter variables or program labels. When you are prompted for a letter entry, the A..Z sym- bol appears in the display, and the alpha keys are active.
  • Page 9: Undo Key

    Table 1 Backspace and Clear Operations Description Backspace and Clear. If an expression is in the process of being entered, pressing erases the character to the left of the entry cursor ( _ ). Otherwise, with a completed expression or the result of a calculation in line 2, replaces that result with a zero.
  • Page 10: Using Menus

    Undo also recovers the values of a register, or registers, just cleared using the CLEAR menu, if the undo operation immedi- ately follows the cleared operation. Using Menus Sixteen of the keys are menu keys, keys which permit access to more functions.

  • Page 13: Operating Modes

    Operating Modes The HP 35s has two operating modes: Reverse Polish Notation (RPN) and Algebraic mode (ALG). RPN is usually more efficient than Algebraic, requiring fewer key presses to solve most prob- lems. It is also particularly helpful when working through a prob- lem one step at a time, as all intermediate answers are displayed.

Retrieving the "last x" has two primary uses, correct- ing errors and reusing a number in a calculation. For example, suppose you wanted to find the square root of a number, but pressed by mistake.

  • Page 18: Memory And Variables

    9 rather than 7. Memory and Variables The HP 35s has 30KB of memory for storing numbers, equa- tions and programs. Numbers are stored in locations called variables or registers. Variables are named with a letter from A to Z, giving 26 directly addressable memory registers.
  • Page 19: Built-In Functions

    tions. These variables are always available for use. For exam- ple, in ALG mode, to save the currently displayed value into register Q, press ºeQÏ. To recall the value to use it again, press hQÏ. The stack registers X, Y, Z, and T are not the same as the memory registers with the same letter.

If you make a mistake entering a value or values, key them in again and press ¹- to remove them. For example, suppose you wish to find the average X and Y val- ues of the following set of data points: (1,2), (4,5), and (9,4).

    The HP Solve and integration features can be extended to work with programs as well as expressions. Pressing the d key displays the HP 35s equation cata- log. Figure 19 If there are no user- entered equations, the display appears as shown at right.
  • Page 33: Evaluating Expressions

    You can specify that an equation evaluates, solves for unknown values (find roots), and is used for numeric integration. Evaluating Expressions The HP 35s evaluates expressions entered into the equation list. For example, if you wish to evaluate X –4 for various values of X, press d and then press hX)2Ã4Ï.
  • Page 34 The display shows the value of the expression when X=3, which is 5. Figure 22 To evaluate the expression at another value of X, press the d key, then Ï, and key the next value of X and ¥. This operation can be repeated as often as you may need to evalu- ate the expression at different values of a variable.

  • Page 39 Not every system of linear equations has a solution. Some sys- tems have an infinite number of solutions. The linear solver equations built into the HP 35s detects situations where no solu- tion exists, or where an infinite number of solutions exist.
  • Page 40 Figure 33 Begin the solution by pressing ºÛ. The HP 35s prompts for the entry of the six coefficients, which are stored in lettered variables A through F. The value stored in variable A is dis- played, which you may use by pressing ¥, or replace by key- ing in another value and pressing ¥.

    annunciators at the right of the display indicate that more information exists. Press Ø to display the value found for Y. Figure 36 The solution to this 2 by 2 system is {X = 4, Y = – 2}. Solving 3 by 3 linear systems is done in the same manner.
