I'm looking for a two argument arctan function that works like the C++/Matlab/Fortran atan2. The 50 has a atan2 function, but it doesn't figure out what...
Your hp 50g does not have a function like that, I suggest a code like this: « R->C ARG » or if you want: « -> x y 'ARG(x+i*y)' ->NUM » Your hp 50g does not...
Yea, the problem is that you get negative rotation that way. I need the range to be positive full circle from pi/2. I think I'm just going to cascade a...
In trigonometry, a counterclockwise rotation is positive and that is the way atan2 works, as you can see in this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atan2...
... No that won't be pretty. Use the MOD command. 360 MOD or 2 PI * MOD Depending on your needs. In sysRPL what you want is extreemly easy. ... %REC>POL...
I'm new to 50g, but a long-time HP user. It seems to me that one of the more obvious advantages of connecting a calculator to a PC would be the ability to use...
Yes. In windows you can set up any device that sends text to the computer over a serial device and it parses it like keyboard input. Basically, you assign a...
Ok, I tried that, but got noting. Is there any other configuring on the PC side? I tried setting the Accessibility Options to use serial keys, but that...
I don't know how useful this might be but worth a look: http://www.hpcalc.org/details.php?id=3721 Says it's for the 48 but you only need to put the calculator...
Thanks for your suggestion! I'm a bit slow at parsing your syntax - I recognize the << >> encapsulation of a program string, and I recognize the command XMIT ...
... He means the command represented by the right-arrow symbol [right-shift][0], followed by the letters STR, no space between. It converts its argument to a...
Thanks again! Part of my confusion did indeed come from missing the fact that the manual's description of XMIT uses ALG rather than RPN... I still find,...
... And now you have ->STR, instead of -> STR. Also, you may (or may not) find it quicker just to hold down the alpha key and press S, T, R, in sequence, then...
... This inserts a space between the -> character and the following "STR".... Please ensure you delete this extra space with a backspace Maybe you'd better...
Thanks for your patience! After making the correction that you recommended (eliminating the space between -> and STR ), the program appears to function as...
... Yes. It can also return a 0, but I've never once seen that. So just modify the program to add a DROP. Did you assign it to a key? Or just run it from...
My thanks to Tim, Dave and Giancarlo for their input and patience regarding this interesting (to me, anyway) question of how to send a string from a 50g to the...
Howdy All. Yep I set hyperterminal to "8N1 19k baud Xon/off" and the program works as advertised. You have to be sure and set these parameters in the "APPS"...
Press the alpha shift key first, then the * ... ____________________________________________________________________________________ Like movies? Here's a...
I recently purchased my 50g and was surprised to see that it was on ROM version 2.08. So, I upgraded it to 2.09. However, I can not find any release notes or...
No go Don. It gives me the "too few arguments" error or just multiple quotes. Trying to get the darned thing to send strings of ASCII characters to control my...
Question for Matthew: From your post I'm gathering that you have successfully sent a character string from your 50g to an active cell in an open Excel file, or...
Howdy Bob. Well first let me express my total confusion along with you!I've slapped my head over this 50g more than once but never with the calc... I love it...
Maybe I don't understand the nature of your problem. Are you getting the error when you press the "xmit" key? Or are you getting the error when you try to put ...
8bit no parity is the default, at least it was on previous models (hp48 & hp49). So, nothing to set but the baud. And you do need a serial cable but not just...
Regarding the serial port cable for the HP50G, I got one from hpcalc.org and its working fine. It´s not just a cable but it has an Atmel microcontroller and a...
Maybe this is kind of a trivial answer to all of this, but I go back and forth between my calculator and computer all the time. The way I do it is: 1. Hook up...
Good Morning Don. Yes the problem is with placing "*IDN?" on level 1 of the stack. No problems with xmit. Regards Matthew ... Total Access, No Cost. W00t...
