the key is highlighted, while the

problems are provided throughout the text and in tables. Key symbols are placed in the order they are to be pressed, from left
to right.
Annunciators
Annunciators are symbols that appear in the display as messages, or after certain keys or key combinations have been
pressed. Annunciators are special symbols indicating a specific status in the calculator. Figure 3 illustrates the annunciator
symbols in the display.
