Numeric value display method

Abstract

In a numeral value display apparatus, in the case that a display processing unit (8) executes such an operation that a numeral value stored in a storage member is read out to display the read numeral value, the display processing unit (8) is arranged to be controlled that if a digit number of the numeral value to be displayed is larger than a displayable digit number of a numeral value display device (1), then the display processing unit (8) subdivides the numeral value into a preset digit number in order that such a fact that which numeral portion of the numeral value to be displayed is displayed can be grasped, and then, displays a portion of the subdivided numeral values. Also, the operation key is arranged by both a left key (3) and a right key (4). The display processing unit (8) sets a display unit variable (P) which is required to control display positions of the numeral value every preset dividing digit number, and switches digit portions of the numeral value based upon the display unit variable (P) every time the operation key is (3), (4) depressed. As a result, it is possible to provide a numeral value display system capable of displaying a numeral value in an easily intuitively understandable form by using a smaller digit number of a display device, while operation feelings are not deteriorated.
