Output 45,40,"You have $"&string(money)&" "
& - connects two strings (like + on the other 8X calcs that do strings)
string(money) - converts a REAL number into a string... the number 300 becomes
"300" so that it can be displayed in the same command
" " - to cover up whatever number was there before, make this string with
extra spaces if the number will have more than 3 digits.
