Memory registers

XCALC is equipped with ten memory registers; each can hold one number in Decimal, Fraction, Complex or Integer (Hex/Oct/Bin) format. The keys to control the memory are as follows (use the numeric keypad):

As a reminder, XCALC will show small digits on the bottom pane of the screen that represent the memory registers. If a register contains zero, the digit is shown in the button text colour, otherwise in the selected button colour (configurable). You can also control the memory operations with the mouse by clicking on those small digits:

You can also start (press Ctrl-N, or see Configuring XCALC) a separate, movable popup window that shows the contents of the various memory registers. In addition, memory registers can be saved (along with the stack contents) between sessions. The registers are saved in binary format in the file XCALC.DAT in your XCALC directory.
