Hello Cyrille,

[churichuro]

there is still the error
from the input command in python
on G1 hardware

the entered value is not replicated
x = float (input ("x ="))
y = float (input ("y ="))

on the screen you see
x = y =

[Dirk.nl]

I think not a bug, but how it is made.
After input you can insert a command like: <print(var, “ unit”)>

yes, I know but is not the ideal Dirk.nl

[Vincent Weber]

Fast and great as usual, thanks Cyrille !
Now the basic indent seems to work fine.
But I still don't understand the logic of the automatic line shifting upon starting a new block. Seems that it forces you to have a blank line before starting the block, which I find strange. Any comment on that ?

Also, as pointed out by someone in another thread, the alpha indicator on the top line of the editor has the caps reverse (lower for upper and vice-versa). Small matter but still...

Thanks a lot and regards,

Vincent

It is a bug, according to how Python works on all other platforms.

I hope we don't have have to start adjusting our Python code to do Prime specific workarounds for basic, core Python syntax?

I love, litteraly love, this one :

FIXED BUG: added from ... import * in python modules

Merci beaucoup Cyrille, vous êtes formidable !

Hi, I'm a new HP Prime user and I'm really excited about the updates Cyrille and team are working on!

I had a question regarding the Python app. Is there a way to show a plot in python (maybe using hpprime library (?)) other than show()?

In the April 27th beta it was mentioned that show() is not currently linked to anything and it seems it's still unlinked in the update for April 28th beta.
I've been playing around trying to plot hist or histogram, but not sure if it's possible without enabling show().

Did this bèta release quietly turn final?

Edit: removed ftp-link to "ftp.hp.com/pub/calculators/Prime/" because most browsers don't support these anymore

HP were working to a deadline to have released code by end of April that complied with the Dutch Education requirements.

I hope that this milestone having been reached does not mean development has again been stopped and focus shifted back to keyboards and mice..

[Tim Wessman]

Hi,

Yes, there was a deadline we were working towards.

As to the future, who can say!

[Eddie W. Shore]

I'm a little confused:

On the calculator itself, the About Screen does not make any mention that the 14575 firmware is beta.

However on the emulator, the About Screen does make the mention that the 14575 firmware is beta, and there is a BETA indicator on the screen.

Then I read on the TI Planet forum that beta versions last only 60 days. ( https://tiplanet.org/forum/viewtopic.php...ead#unread ).

Is everything beta or just the emulator and Connectivity Kit?

[StephanP]

It's confusing, yes.
In test mode, the test mode status screen does mention BETA.
I guess, the team ran out of time for now. See previous remark from Tim.

[StephanP]

Correction: on my HP Prime there is no mention of BETA, that is on the About HP Prime Help page, as well as the exam mode status screen. Apologies for the confusion.

In the Virtual Calculator, both the About Help page and the Exam mode status screen, BETA is mentioned

[Tim Wessman]

Yes, cyrille did not quite know where to change in the build server to general non-beta releases and some made it through marked that way. Will be corrected some time.

This is error?
