Editing Calculator Expressions
Although you cannot edit an expression in the Calculator history, you can copy all or part of an expression from the history and paste it to the entry line. You can then edit the entry line.
Positioning the Cursor in an Expression
|
▶
|
Press e, ¡, ¢, £ or ¤ to move the cursor through the expression. The cursor moves to the closest valid position in the direction that you press. |
Note: An expression template may force the cursor to move through its parameters, even though some parameters may not be exactly in the path of the cursor movement. For example, moving upward from the main argument of an integral always moves the cursor to the top limit.
Inserting into an Expression in the Entry Line
|
1.
|
Position the cursor at the point where you want to insert additional elements. |
|
2.
|
Type the elements that you want to insert. |
Note: When you insert an open parenthesis, Calculator adds a temporary close parenthesis, displayed in gray. You can override the temporary parenthesis by typing the same parenthesis manually or by entering something past the temporary parenthesis (thereby implicitly validating its position in the expression). After you override the temporary gray parenthesis, it is replaced with a black parenthesis.
Selecting Part of an Expression

1.

Position the cursor at the starting point in the expression. |

Deleting all or part of an expression on the entry line
