I'm not familiar with Hp32 code, but it looks like it wouldn't be too hard to bring it forward to other models such as Hp35s? Yes, I think it should be translated without any particular issue also for other programmable calculators; the only "special" programming technique involved, I guess, it's the usage indirect store and recall functions, which on HP-41 I've understood it can be done with any register while for example on HP-32SII you can only do it with one specific register (the "i"), so you've to deal with this limitation (and the limited memory!). On the other side HP-32SII has a built in Random number generator so I've been able a whole routine in the original version for HP-41 with just command (1.5 byte instead of 10 bytes I guess). Yes, me too I've spent a lot of time playing with Mastermind tabletop version of the game with my family in my youth. As you said, I've never seen it around in these days, it's a pity since it's a really funny game. What you did with the Sinclair Cambridge I bet it has been a lot of fun too! |
