[WP 31s] difficulty with STO/ RCL X Y Z T

17 STO ENTER T will put 17 in the T register

RCL ENTER T will recall the value in the T register.

(Please see the table about "Addressing Real Numbers" on Page 27 of the WP34 manual for the definitive discussion!)

You can also use the period/decimal key:

17 [STO] [.] [T] ---> [EDIT - This is wrong! - use the ENTER key]

[RCL] [.] [T]

One slight advantage to using [ENTER] vs [.] is that the calculator displays an 's' indicating you are accessing a shifted memory location. (I do not recall if the 's' actually indicates 'shifted', but that seems likely.) With [.] there is no indication--but it works.

This also seems to work with the register arithmetic functions.

[EDIT - This is incorrect. Use the [ENTER] key! See below.]
