HP-16C limits? - V-PN - 04-09-2005 Can anyone code this: Re: HP-16C limits? - Gunnar Degnbol - 04-10-2005 I don't think it can be squeezed into an HP-16C. I implemented it in Java, and the classes are about 5 KB in total. You can get my Java code, if you want, but it is just a translation of the NetRexx code.
Re: HP-16C limits? - Patrice - 04-11-2005 This quick and dirty HP16C program must do for the compressor !
001- LBL C STO 0 8 8 8 AND STO 2 RCL 0 XOR

Re: HP-16C limits? - Patrice - 04-11-2005 For a better formatting, go to new line at every step number.

Allow me? (was: Re: HP-16C limits?) - Vieira, Luiz C. (Brazil) - 04-11-2005 Hi, Patrice;
I see you are trying to format your listing. Please, let me know if this is what you want: 001- LBL C STO 0 8 8 8 AND STO 2 RCL 0 XOR
To accomplish this, add a [pre] in the begining of the listing, and a [/pre] in the end of it. Like this: [pre]001- LBL C STO 0 8 8 8 AND STO 2 RCL 0 XORand, of course, congrats. Your suggestion is a very good example of efficient programming with the HP16C. Cheers.

Re: HP-16C limits? - Gunnar Degnbol - 04-11-2005 I think this is the IEEE 754 binary floating point format. The question was about the upcoming IEEE 754R decimal format. It is a kind of Huffman compressed BCD, with some bits carrying information on both the exponent and the coefficient (mantissa). This gives 16 digits of precision, with an exponent from -383 to 384. This format is designed to be hardware-friendly, so a decimal FPU can easily split it into BCD digits. The IEEE 754R guys think that decimal arithmetic will take over from binary.
As I said, it is 5 KB of Java classes, and though RPN may be more compact, there is no way to squeeze it into an HP 16C.
