First Month with 50g

I don't remember, but does the USB port also charge the batteries?

Quote:Storing a variable seems to take me more steps than in the User’s Guide. My keystrokes are normally: [tick] [alpha] [alpha] name chars [K] [Backspace ()] [alpha] [Enter] [STO]. With a little more practice my goal is to reduce this by at least three!! :~)

If the variable does not exist yet, then you can simply type its name (no tic marks needed) and the name is automatically parsed to have the tic marks. If the variable does exist, then it will likely appear in the variable menu, accessible via the VAR key. You can then store to an existing variable using a shift key followed by the corresponding F? key (1 through 6). The other shift key + the corresponding soft key will recall the contents of that variable (I forget which shift does which). One thing to watch out for is the "long hold" feature (which I personally hate) for keypresses. You may also want to read up on the ->KEYTIME command if you type really fast (I set mine to about 100 since I am a "two-thumb-typer" when using calculators).
