multiplying by a hundred is a presentation/formatting issue, the number is still the same

ugh, using an HP is just beyond me. . I tried for the CFA / CPA exam, and just couldn't do it.



coming from more of a programming background, the reverse polish notation or whatever the name is for the process is just too weird. I started with excel way before grad school and HP finance calculator usage. . . even programmed a trash 80 to do engineering involute curve calculations in the very early 80s, so HP is just too niche to learn
