Description

The “Add Mode” automatically adds a decimal point and two decimal places to all values, even if you don’t input a decimal point. This mode is very useful when performing calculations in dollars or other currencies that require two decimal places.

If you press the DEL key while entering a value or you are performing an operation other than addition and subtraction, the calculator does not add decimal spaces.
