Any given functionality should have its home in only one place: then if you change it later, it changes everywhere. Strive to make each separate routine or function general purpose -- this helps. The "code only once" precept is also good for figuring out what code should be split out into a subroutine.

Does that make sense?

Of course it makes perfect sense. I thought about this for a minute. I sometimes have trouble (still to this day) with RPL and the no jumping to a specific line number. I have been programming on my DM42 for a couple of years and I forget how I made things work in RPL.

I through in a call to the program name after each button was pressed. This refreshes the menu with the least amount of effort.

Thank you again. I am going to continue to write a teaching program and then post it up for review and feedback.
