could not afterwards se any other meaning as used in Alberts text.

In my dictionary it stands like this:

indirection [indi'recSen] sb uaerlighed, svigfuldhed, kneb, fif.
These four words stands for;
dishonesty, deceitfulness, trick, dodge.

I never used the word indirection. (this is my first post here)
I looked up Eric Raymond's Jargon File, and the word is common enough that it is not even defined.

I can see why you were offended. It is just a language misunderstanding.
Here, we talk geek (in the good way)

Here is another computer word which may be offensive: git - distributed version control system

Quote:Git is a term of insult with origins in English denoting
an unpleasant, silly, incompetent, annoying, senile, elderly or childish person.

Quote:By the way - concerning the answer to my Prime problem;
This is all there are too it: {48}[1]
Doing this in the command line places 48 on the stack without brackets.

If it were this simple, the thread would not be this long.
In HOME mode, HP Prime incorrectly parse it as variables, with implied multiply.

HOME> {48}[1]       → {48}*[1]       → {[48]}

Perhaps this is a bug ?

---------------------------------

I found the same limit with STRIP({48},DOM_FLOAT), posted earlier here by
me, when running it in PRIME emulator, it only works in calculator cas input mode. The reason are, that it's not the DOM_FLOAT that is doing the stripping. The stripping of the brackets from the enclosed numerical is done alone by storing and calling the enclosed argument. The only way without storing and calling it, are noted by, Didier ,using the head command, head({48}).

So I would still prefer a dedicated stripping command.

Fine, you accept a mistake.
