HP 12C Simple Question on Display Message #1 Posted by Ken Delano on 8 Aug 2001, 6:56 p.m. I have a HP 12C with no manual. How do you change the display from a comma to a decimal point? Also it displays a "c" in the bottom right corner. What is this for? How do you get out of "c" mode? Thanks for any help. Ken

This operation changes dot to comma and vice-versa. The single "c" on the corner of the display means that singular period (less than 30 days initial period) is to be considered on financial calculations. It does not affect any calculus other than financial with full periods. For changing it, press (STO) (ENTER) with the calculator ON. (STO) (ENTER) will swap the "c" sign ON and OFF. If you need more information, e-mail me. IŽll be ready only at weekends.
