Programming Question on HP15CE

[Maximilian Hohmann]

Hello!

If in doubt, aks ChatGPT: „Please write a program for the hp-15c to calculate the time it takes for an object to fall a given height on earth“

The first result used a storage register for the input value, so I asked again: „Can you please rewrite that program without using a memory register“

Ang got almost the same listing as has been shown above several times already, albeit with one unnecessary ENTER:

Code:

001 - f LBL A      ; Label A
002 - ENTER        ; Duplicate the height h on the stack
003 - 2
004 - ×            ; Multiply h by 2
005 - 9.81
006 - ÷            ; Divide by g (9.81)
007 - √x           ; Take the square root
008 - g RTN        ; Return

The code comes with a very detailed explanation of the equations and detailed instructions on how to use it.
