WP 34S - indirect addressing issue - Gerson W. Barbosa - 01-22-2012 I've noticed indirect addressing doesn't work when the fractional part of the index is equal or greater than 0.5. Of course, by definition indices are integer numbers. However, as a convenience, HP calculators accept non-integer number as indices for indirect addressing and just ignore the fractional part. Is this a WP 34S bug or a feature? Thanks!

Re: WP 34S - indirect addressing issue - Paul Dale - 01-22-2012 It seems to be working:
1 STO 01 Returns 1 as it should. In other words, I'm not understanding the problem here. Any chance of a step by step reproduction please?
Re: WP 34S - indirect addressing issue - Gerson W. Barbosa - 01-22-2012 Returns 2 in version 2.2 build 1975 (Emulator). Gerson. --------------
Also, 99 STO 99
returns 99.99 Edited: 22 Jan 2012, 5:20 p.m.

I can confirm an error for version 2.2 1789 (emulator) where this returns 2. Dieter
Re: WP 34S - indirect addressing issue - Paul Dale - 01-22-2012 You are correct. I tested in v3 which this is all working happily. The proper solution is to upgrade ;-)
Re: WP 34S - indirect addressing issue - Gerson W. Barbosa - 01-22-2012 I was having trouble in a program that worked on the HP-42S but would not work on my outdated WP 34S. Mine was flashed last July. Just received Eric's overlays (very nice on the former 20b!). A suitable USB-to-serial converter is still missing though. Cheers,

I could do one this week if someone can point me to the fix. I've yet to patch to serial port fix into 2.2 as well.
Re: WP 34S - indirect addressing issue - Paul Dale - 01-22-2012 I committed the fix in the 2.2 branch.
