Hello, i have always used Casio calculators now i bought the HP Prime & i have a simple question.
It is possible to change the number format (only the result) to engineering with one button?
I know it is possible to change the number format but it's tedious to change it entering to settings (i not always want the result in that way)
Thanks
You can write a short program to do this, using the reserved settings variable HFormat.
Hello Michael, thanks for the answer.
I have done this:
EXPORT eng(X)
BEGIN
LOCAL ans;
ans:=X;
HFormat:=3;
RETURN ans;
END;
it works fine but i have two problems:
1.I want to assign it to a button, like to be at CAS mode, the touch button "simplif" to have a button "eng"... is that possible?
2. I don't want that it changes the mode which i'm working.
In order to do that i've tried to put a HFormat:=0; after the RETURN but that didn't work.
Thanks :)
