Another symbol is the cents '¢' symbol. Simply press down the 'Alt' button with one hand, punch in the numbers 155, release the 'Alt' button and like magic the cent '¢' symbol will appear.
I hope this helps someone, it is just a little knowledge and timesaver.

on my computer I type in Alt and 248 and my little degree mark comes up °. I will try your way too. Here goes º Yup it works but I use my calculator keys as I was taught.
Now to ¢ Yep that works too. Thank you very much as I am up dating my junior high school note book with all those little sheets of paper so my kids can have a copy. Gosh what we don't do for our kids. Anyone want a few thousand recipes from 57 years of collecting most of them.
