I write numerical analysis code and copy-and-run various sorting algorithms from the internet. I appreciate sample code that shows me how to include Python source code and then launch it!

Preface: don't rely on what I say, I'm an amateur. But let's give it a try. I've changed my benchmark code a little to avoid the hassle with sys.argv

Code:

#PYTHON name
from math import *
import hpprime
t=hpprime.eval("time")
c=int(input("Enter the exponent! "))
print("Exponent = ",c)
print("Iterations = ", 10**c)
a=0
for i in range(1, 10**c+1):
    a=a+pow((e**(sin(atan(i)))),1/3) 
print("Time (sec) = ",round(hpprime.eval("time")-t,4))
print("Sum = ",a)
#end
Export sums(c)
Begin
  PYTHON(name, c);
End;

with [Shift][1][New] create a new program e.g. sums, delete the template that is in it, copy and paste the code above.

Now from the program catalog run this program. Disregard the input field and touch OK. Now it asks for an exponent, enter e.g. 5 and your done.

Alternatively, create a new APP. Save the Python App under a new name e.G. "Sums"
Open its ("Sums") source code editor by touching [Symb]. Copy the following part of the code

Code:


from math import *
import hpprime
t=hpprime.eval("time")
c=int(input("Enter the exponent! "))
print("Exponent = ",c)
print("Iterations = ", 10**c)
a=0
for i in range(1, 10**c+1):
    a=a+pow((e**(sin(atan(i)))),1/3) 
print("Time (sec) = ",round(hpprime.eval("time")-t,4))
print("Sum = ",a)

into your new App "Sums". Now you can run this app from the Apps screen. And this APP is ready to receive all the bells and whistles you might imagine

Do you really want to set the starting time before the input statement? That won't just time the machine, it'll include the time it takes for you to answer the question as well.
