hi
are there any tutorials that show how to add notes(save them) - text & formula into the calculater so you can recall them later?
This is my first programmable/graphic calculator.
i have been to hpcalc.org but haven't found anything there as yet.
thanks for all help
So far the only way I know is to create a string variable with your text and store the text you write. While creating your notes, you can press TOOL access STYLE [TOOL] [NEXT] [NEXT] |Style| to highlight, bold, itlicize (sp?), or underline text. Use the [LS] [BEGIN], [LS] [END] to select your text.
hpcalc.org may have text writing programs for the HP49G+.
Good luck,
Eddie
Why oh why should it have to be stored in a "text" kind of object ???
Just create a program and type away freely whatever you want.
As long as you don't execute it, no one will ever know !
This works on ANY alpha-enabled programmable calculator...
no.
Most calculators tokenize the program as you write it, or after you press enter. The HP will most likely say 'syntax error' after pressing enter.
Making a string is no harder then making a program.
Type the "", and put your text in between the quotes. Press enter. Type the note name. Press STO.
"I'm using this to cheat on a test because I am dishonest "
CHEAT
STO

? Usually when I don't know, I refrain from objecting.
However, the objection of tokenization is interesting. Please quote a precise model where this doesn't work ? Personally I can't.
<<Why won't this work?>>
Basically, things like mismatched brackets or "'"'s, or accidently mentioning control commands (DO/IF etc) and so on.
While for small notes you can probably avoid these problems easily, why would you bother?
Its just as easy to use a string without possible problems.
