174 Appendix A: RPN and the Stack
In the example above, the constant was repeatedly multiplied by the result of the
previous operation, which was already in the displayed X-register. In another
class of calculations with constants, the constant is multiplied by (or added to,
etc.) a new number keyed into the displayed X-register. For these calculations,
you must press O before keying in a new number after having pressed an
operator key. If this were not done, the stack would lift when you keyed in a new
number after pressing the operator key, and the Y-register would no longer con-
tain the constant. (Recall – from page 168 – that the stack does not lift when a
number is keyed into the displayed X-register after O is pressed.)
Example: At Permex Pipes a certain pipe fitting is packaged in quantities of 15,
75, and 250. If the cost per fitting is $4.38, calculate the cost of each package.
