MCODE Keith Numbers



#2

I know this is very late, but I cant stand not-finished projects…

A few weeks back Don posted a Keith Number Challenge. It was obvious that a RPN solution for the 41 would be way to slow but I thought a MCODE solution should be acceptable time-wise. Unfortunately I got side-tracked in this other thing called 'normal life' and so the rudimentary code was never finished. Well, this weekend I stole a couple of hours to finish it (an unfinished project is really nagging me...)

Below you find an MCODE function called NXTK (Next Keith number) that finds the next Keith number > than the value in X. Original X is stored into L.

I must say that I was surprised how long it takes to get to the Keith numbers past 10^3. Even in MCODE and m41 simulation it takes a few minutes to get from 7909 to 31331, which is one of the larger gaps.

One useful piece of code for MCODERS might be MFFR – MCODE Find Free Regs. Sometimes one needs some scratch area and this routine finds the first free available RAM register in the buffer area. It also checks if there are enough free regs ( you can request a certain number of free regs). To use it place the number of regs you need into B[S&X] and you get back in A[S&X] the absolute address off the first free reg which you then can use for your storage needs. If there are not enough free regs, the routine jumps out to [PACKE] (Packing, Try Again).

Pfhh, I'm happy this is finished now, I want to dig into 41Z from Angel!

Cheers

Peter
