Do’s of GATE Virtual Calculator 2018

  • Be sure to press [C] when beginning a new calculation.
  • Simply an equation using parenthesis and other mathematical operators.

  • Use memory function for calculating cumulative totals.
  • [M+]: Will add displayed value to memory.
  • [MR]: Will recall the value stored in memory.
  • [M-]: Subtracts the displayed value from memory.
