Lines: 10 Here is an explanation for why the CHS key *acts funny* in the equation writer. When you are in the equation writer, it is like being in algabraic mode, ie you are NOT using RPN. Therefore, the operator is specified either before a single operand (ie. cos, sin, chs, exp, etc.) or it is specified between two operators (ie y^x, +, etc.). That is why the CHS key only works before the exponent. Sincerely, Jason P. Meyers JMEYERS@MTUS5.BITNET
