 # As you input numeric values or commands, 
they appear fl ush left on the display. 
Calculation results, on the other hand, are 
displayed fl ush right.
  # The allowable range for both input and output 
values is 15 digits for the mantissa and two 
digits for the exponent. Internal calculations are 
also performed using a 15-digit mantissa and 
two-digit exponent.
