HP 50g Calculators - Attaching Units to Numbers

To attach a unit object to a number in Algebraic mode, the number must be followed by an underscore ( ). Thus, a force of 5 N will be entered as '5_N'.

Here is the sequence of steps to enter this number in ALG mode, system flag 117 set to CHOOSE boxes:

NOTE: Forgetting the underscore will result the expression as 5*N, where N here represents a possible variable name and not Newtons.

To enter this same quantity, with the calculator in RPN mode, use the following keystrokes:

NOTE: The underscore is entered automatically when the RPN mode is active.
