1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an electronic apparatus capable of providing plural information.
2. Description of the Prior Art
In the summation of business forms or data with serial numbers it is helpful, in preventing errors in the summation, to obtain the item count, which is the number of actuations of the addition or subtraction key, and to have the item count printed together with the result of the summation when the print instruction key is actuated. However, when such a scheme is implemented the item count can be checked only when it is printed on the recording paper in response to the actuation of the print instruction key, and cannot therefore be confirmed when the result of summation is not printed. Also, an interim printing operation for the purpose of verifying the item count during the course of a series of calculation is not desirable in case the recording paper is remaining little nearly depleted or has to be economized. Furthermore, in the course of summation of many similar items of data with corresponding serial numbers, the confirmation of the last entered items of data can only be made by the comparison of the obtained print with the data or by the confirmation of the item count printed together with the interim result, and cannot therefore be achieved if the recording paper is not in use.
Furthermore, in case of providing plural information such as the data of calculation and the item count, simultaneous output of these information inevitably requires an increased number of digits in the output device.
