can anyone help me with my texet albert3 calculator?

hey
i need to input data into my texet albert^3 calculator to use the sats functions, i've looked in the little manual thing and it says i have to push a button called DT when in stats mode.
the DT button is the same button as the divide button and i can't push it lol
is comes up with the divide symbol

has anyone else had this problem? or do you know what i need to do?
please help, thanks!

Press shift probably

As you will probably know, textet calculators are awful! Try and get a casio maybe.

It does stats stuff, I think, but I don't know how. And it doesn't differentiate, but I'm pretty sure you're not allowed calculators that differentiate in your exams. They have calculators that do differentiate and integrate: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Casio-Natural-Dispaly-Scientific-Calculator/dp/B000IW7Z4O

Essentially, anything in the Casio FX range will be fine.

I know this is an old topic but yeh the DT button is the M+ button, was trying to find this as well and just found it by carefully scanning my calculator :biggrin:

if you need to replace your albert you would be better off with a Sharp than a Casio... unless you go for a graphics calculator in which case it is the other way round !!
A Sharp EL520 or similar will handle all your data requirements.
