[VA] New update #009 available in my HP site (12 new files 12) - Valentin Albillo - 12-05-2019 04:08 PM
Hi, all:
I've been uploading a new update (#009) to my brand-new HP-related site, namely the following 12 files 12 (which you can download for free in PDF or JPG formats):
1. One Program
- HP Program VA344 - HP-34C Solving Quartic Equations
- 4-page paper featuring a 175-step RPN program for the HP-34C, HP-67 and HP-97 programmable calculators to compute simultaneously and non-iteratively all four real and/or complex roots of a general 4th-degree (or less) polynomial equation with real coefficients, using exact formulas. The HP-34C's SOLVE function is not used and all four real and/or complex roots are computed at once in 15-20 seconds at most with full precision.
It will also work in the HP-15C, the HP-41C series and posibly other RPN models with very minimal changes (detailed in the Notes). Four worked examples are included, solving three quartics and one cubic equation.

3. Three HP Selected Threads
- HP Thread VA000 - HP-41-42 style RPN challenge
- HP Thread VA001 - hp 71b
- HP Thread VA002 - HP71 ROM module functions A
4. One Book Review and two pictures of its covers
- SHARP Book Review VA001 - Problem Solving on the TRS-80 Pocket Computer
- This is my 6-page comprehensive review of the book Problem Solving on the TRS-80 Pocket Computer - Self-Teaching Guide by Don Inman and Jim Conlan, a self-teaching guide for readers to thoroughly get to know and efficiently use the title pocket computer but equally valid for the SHARP PC-1210, PC-1211 and PC-1212 models. All 12 Chapters and 5 Appendices are reviewed in detail, then I give my final Conclusion.
- SHARP Book Review VA001 - Problem Solving on the TRS-80 Pocket Computer (Front Cover)
- SHARP Book Review VA001 - Problem Solving on the TRS-80 Pocket Computer (Back Cover)
... and last but not least ...
5. Two nice FractVal Pictures
- Misc Picture VA200 - Family Ties {Notice both a Mandelbrot and a Mandelbar (aka Tricorn) visible at the same time in this picture.}
- Misc Picture VA242 - Star Trek Nexus {A cosmic string ["Nexus"] travelling across the Universe at the speed of light.}
That's all, hope you enjoy them ! Comments welcome !! (the more the merrier ...)
New update (#010) will be announced here next Wednesday 11th
