Thanks Bernhard - I figured out it also, but if I ask my question as "Can anybody give me a good advice how can I swim across the Atlantic Sea?" And you answer it as "If you use a boat it can easily be done", you can see that the "sailing" and "swimming" is not the same things...

I tried it with some ways on my HP (for example with "forced" parentheses) and it is not works. I really like this little algebraic calc and I really like to use its functions, programming, statistics, and so on... but it's a sad thing to find a bug in the data entry routine.

Hi Csaba,

Of course, I tried the parentheses too, and it didn't work. The parentheses were just ignored. It is well known that the HP-20S behaviour is not consistent. Ignoring parentheses in an algebraic calculator is a bug. Perhaps there is a little relict of RPN left inside.

You have to take the sailing boat.
