But you can name the function // or ||, whichever you like:
To enter the function name type a double quote ( " ) and in the placeholder type the slashes //, or the vertical bars ||, then delete the closing quote. Then you can type the bracket ( followed by the parameters and : to enter the expression.
Success!

You can create an R1||R2 function, with the parallel lines in the middle, by following these steps:
1. Type the double quote mark " to get "".
2. Inside the double quotes, type the function name R1||R2. The vertical line is the shifted character on the backslash key, and you need two of them.
3. With the cursor between the R2 and the second double quote, hit Delete which will convert the text string to math.
4. Type a left parenthesis ( to get ().
5. Type your list of variables inside the parentheses. At this point, it should look like R1||R2(R1,R2).
6. Type : to get :=
7. Type the function definition, either your version or Fred's (I'm a civil engineer, not an electrical engineer, but I took two years of electronics in high school and an introductory electrical engineering course in college. I have always been partial to the harmonic mean version that Fred used).
I have also attached for your use the Prime 9.0 worksheet that this image is from. Every time you want to invoke this function, it will be easier to copy it than to retype it.
