We can edit an expression without starting again. If we place the cursor over a symbol and press a new key, the new symbol replaces (overwrites) the old one.
Recalling an Entry
We can recall a previous entry by pressing 2ndENTER.
Inserting a Character
To insert a new character before a symbol, position the cursor over that symbol and press 2ndDEL to get the INS (insert) command.
Recalling an Answer
We often want to use the result from a previous calculation in a new calculation, without having to type in the number. We use the ANS key, 2nd(-), to recall the answer to the last calculation.
