How to run binary files on HP Prime? - fangshichao - 03-16-2017 08:33 AM

How to run binary files(i.e. compiled from c++) instead of its own language. I'd like to run some programs in c language, but the interpretive execution of the calculator greatly decreased the speed.

Thanks.

There is currently no support for C++ in the HP Prime. What you want to do is not possible on this calculator. Have you considered an HP 50G? The HP 50G does have support for C++ programs through HPGCC2 and HPGCC3: http://hpgcc3.org

Technically, you can install https://github.com/boricj/ripem and run bare metal ELF binaries, but it's just a proof of concept at this point.

But indeed, you can't run native programs with the official firmware.
