Hp 50g: How do I clear a Matrix inside Matrix Writer



#3

Friends:

I'm using an Hp 50g.

Lets say I enter a list of numbers in the cells of the Matrix Writer. I run some statistics on the numbers and I wish to enter a new list. How do I clear the old one without going an clearing the contents one by one? I suspect it has to do with the PURGE command, but since the object has no name (that I can tell) I don't know how to reference it.

Thanks amigos,

Migs

Hi Miguel,

When you exit the matrix writer (such as when you run stats on your dataset), it clears. It will then re-open to a blank pallet.

For this reason, any matrix you want to keep must be put onto the stack (by pressing enter a second time in the matrix writer), and then saved into a variable (or you could just save it on the stack I suppose)
Best regards, Hal

Hi Hal:

You're right. I'm trying to recreate the situation and I can't. Looks good for now. Its just being used to a 41CX makes this 50g a whole new ballgame!

Thanks for your help, -Migs
