Thank you very much.

Quote:Festwiderstand: Bei 100 Ohm fällt am Lichtwiderstand eine Spannung zwischen 3.26 und 3.29 Volt ab.

You're right. I have adjusted the article. Thank you for pointing it out.

Quote:Also most circuits measure V_out over the fixed resistor so that voltage increases as light increases:

I'll have to take another look at that when I get a chance. I see what you mean, but it may mean a major text change.

Quote:But what do I know?

Obviously, a lot.

Quote:Here's a variant that uses one register:

Whether it can be any shorter. Very good. I also have to think about it again.

Quote:My favourite program for the HP-29C is: Prime numbers up to 10'000.

This thread seems to require a lot of time. However, it looks very interesting even at a cursory glance.

Lucky man! Reason enough to buy the latest model to land on the moon together.

I also prefer Woodstocks. I have always used them and prefer to trust them.

I didn't recognize the model name, but looking at the PDF Steve Simpkin posted, I recognized it instantly
I recall a friend having one in about 1981, after a family member upgraded to one of the brand new 12c's... I never got to lay a finger upon it. He did use it playing D&D, mostly for party shares of XP and loot.

Aramis, yes we use the HP internal "Series" names here a lot. Here is a list of both the Series names and individual model names used by HP during development.
