Did the HP-65 record data?

RE: Did the HP-65 record data?
Haven't played with my few 65s lately so all my info from memory.

Each program line can only contain one digit. So entry of a multi digit constant takes up as many program lines as the constant contains digits. Yet one memory register will hold the complete digit as the display will hold. So right, one memory register holds more data then one line of programming.

I didn't think the introduction of a second program card would erase or overwrite the memory registers; that sentence should have been more of a question; read unfamiliarity with the 65. It would be the only reason that a data card in the form of a program loading data would not work.

Forgot that the STO n command was a merge command in the 65 as it is in all other programmable HPs.

Cheers, Geoff

So much to know, so little memory to retain it, or as the 41CX would say: 0 STO C
