 The keys in this menu manipulate modes, variables, and the stack.
 
    The <FLT>, <FIX>, <SCI>, and <ENG> keys select floating-point,
 fixed-point, scientific, or engineering notation.  <FIX> displays two
 digits after the decimal by default; the others display full precision.
 With the <INV> prefix, these keys pop a number-of-digits argument from
 the stack.
 
    The <GRP> key turns grouping of digits with commas on or off.  ‘INV
 GRP’ enables grouping to the right of the decimal point as well as to
 the left.
 
    The <RAD> and <DEG> keys switch between radians and degrees for
 trigonometric functions.
 
    The <FRAC> key turns Fraction mode on or off.  This affects whether
 commands like ‘/’ with integer arguments produce fractional or
 floating-point results.
 
    The <POLR> key turns Polar mode on or off, determining whether polar
 or rectangular complex numbers are used by default.
 
    The <SYMB> key turns Symbolic mode on or off, in which operations
 that would produce inexact floating-point results are left unevaluated
 as algebraic formulas.
 
    The <PREC> key selects the current precision.  Answer with the
 keyboard or with the keypad digit and <ENTER> keys.
 
    The <SWAP> key exchanges the top two stack elements.  The <RLL3> key
 rotates the top three stack elements upwards.  The <RLL4> key rotates
 the top four stack elements upwards.  The <OVER> key duplicates the
 second-to-top stack element.
 
    The <STO> and <RCL> keys are analogous to ‘s t’ and ‘s r’ in regular
 Calc.  SeeStore and Recall.  Click the <STO> or <RCL> key, then one
 of the ten digits.  (Named variables are not available in Keypad mode.)
 You can also use, for example, ‘STO + 3’ to add to register 3.
