Question about Stack and Roll
Hi all.
I have a question for the RPN experts. To refresh my RPN skills, I am re-reading the original manual of the HP-15C, the Owner's Handbook. I dont' have the original HP-15C, but several Android emulators. The question is this: Page 34 of the manual reports the simple example that fills the four registers with the digits 1, 2, 3 and 4. The normal method is obviously: 1) 1 2) Enter 3) 2 4) Enter 5) 3 6) Enter 7) 4 At this point, with the Roll Down key is possible to inspect and verify the contents of the registers. My problem is that if I use Roll Down to inspect the register contents after each Enter of the previous sequence (returning each time to the X register) I found at the end that the registers are filled with the sequence: T: 2.0000 Z: 3.0000 Y: 3.0000 X: 4.0000 This surprises me, because I was expecting the sequence 1, 2, 3, 4. Probably I am missing some subtlety of the RPN Roll behaviuor, could you please help me to understand what happens? Thanks. |

Expected behavior would not drop the 1 from the stack - striegel - 07-01-2016, 03:27 PM
