Plus42 Equations, Preview Release

[Vincent Weber]

Thanks Thomas for your kind words, it was really a pleasure, and I did very little compared to you !

Yes the 17B/27S solver is strange at first, but I came to like it a lot, a pure functional language embedded in a solver with menu, quite efficient. I always thought that adding user-defined fonctions and r/w indirect addressing would make it a fully-fledge language. You have done it, plus adding the 32SII/35S awesome possibility of using equations in RPN program. This is what the 42SII should have been !

I believe equations were THE big feature of Plus42. I don't care much about units (as a French I was brought up in the International System, never had to deal with Oz, lb, pounds and other UK stuff ) but yes there is more to it, within the IS itself.

Big LCD is nice (a true 19BII !), but I hope should not be as complicated.

Financial features of the 19BII would be a really plus for me.

Some people are keen on the fraction mode of the 32SII/35S. I don't see much use of it myself, but I would like one-step complex number entry a la 35S, with i and theta...

Then, the sky is the limit, but careful not to make this a monster, otherwise you'll end up with a 50G simulator the beauty of the 42 is to keep it simple !

Thanks again and cheers
