Both buttons are a way to erase or clear an entry. The CE (clear entry) button clears the most recent entry while the C (clear) button will clear all input to the calculator. So, if you are typing a long computation and make a mistake, press the CE button as it will delete just the last digit.
Looked it up to make sure.
C = wipe all memory
CE= clears current number
Sounds backwards. CE surely stands for “clear everything”
I know! I was shocked! Still hitting both though. Can’t be too careful.
If only there were some way to test this!
Almost correct. CE stands for “Complete Eradication”. Some of the more expensive models have been weaponized.
