Learning to input programs on HP-41

[Sylvain Cote]

Hello Jeff,

You did not start with the easiest program to learn your program entry.
As mentioned in the previous post, these are synthetic lines and cannot be directly entered, without some help, from the keyboard.
You need either the byte grabber or one of the specialty module (ex.: ZenROM, etc) to create these synthetic instructions.

I would suggest to start with one of the HP-41 Solutions Books that only use normal instructions. (ex.: Games, Games II, etc)

Sylvain
