In Algebraic mode, you enter formulas in traditional @expr{2+3} notation. +@strong{Warning:} Note that @samp{/} has lower precedence than +@samp{*}, so that @samp{a/b*c} is interpreted as @samp{a/(b*c)}. See +below for details. + You don't really need any special ``mode'' to enter algebraic formulas. You can enter a formula at any time by pressing the apostrophe (@kbd{'}) key. Answer the prompt with the desired formula, then press @key{RET}. |
