Defining Formulas

4–17

Operators

With respect to MATH-PAK formulas, an operator is a symbol (such as “+”

or “–”) or term (such as “AND” or “AV G ”) that represents a mathematical or

logical operation that is to be performed. Table 4.D, starting on page 4–18,

lists the operator keys, and describes the corresponding operators.

To enter a particular operator in the formula:

• Pick the appropriate operator key on the formula entry keyboard – when

you pick an operator key, the corresponding operator symbol appears in

the display area of the keyboard (see Figure 4.7).

Note: Additional operators are located on the secondary key set, which is

accessed by picking the ↑ key on the initial key set.

Prioritizing operations: Place parentheses around an operator and its

operand(s) in order to prioritize that operation – that is, the result of the

operation(s) in parentheses can be used as an operand by another operator.

“Nesting” is possible, too – this allows a parenthetical portion of a

formula to be contained within another parenthetical portion.

ARC TAN ((GAGE2 – GAGE3) / (GAGE2.3 – GAGE4))

Listing operands: Some operators require that you enter one or more

operands in a parenthetical list following the operator. In these cases,

when you pick the operator, the “open” parenthesis is displayed along

with the operator. After you list the operands (separated by commas), you

then enter the “close” parenthesis.
