In other words, you put the growth factor (1.10) in the Y, Z, and T
stack registers and put the first term (1000) in the X-register. Thereafter, you get the next term
whenever you press ×. For example, when you press × the first time, you calculate
1000 × 1.10 (i.e., x×y). The result (1100.00) is displayed in the X-register and a
new copy of the growth factor (1.10) drops into the Y-register. Since a new copy of the growth factor
is generated each time the stack drops, you never have to reenter it.
