35S Complex Number Extraction
From my latest blog entry at: http://edspi31415.blogspot.com/2014/10/w...umber.html

Here are three utilities you may find useful for the HP35S:

Extract the real part of a complex number:
The complex number is on the X stack.
A001 LBL A
A002 ENTER
A003 ABS
A004 x<>y
A005 ARG
A006 COS
A007 x
A008 RTN

Extract the imaginary part of a complex number:
The complex number is on the X stack.
B001 LBL B
B002 ENTER
B003 ABS
B004 x<>y
B005 ARG
B006 SIN
B007 x
B008 RTN

Polar to Rectangular Conversion:
Calculate a+bi, given:
* angle (argument) stored in X and,
* modulus (absolute value) Y:
C001 LBL C
C002 RCL X
C003 COS
C004 RCLx Y
C005 RCL X
C006 SIN
C007 RCLx Y
C008 i
C009 x
C010 +
C011 RTN


Question: Do you want me to post a link here every time I update my blog? I talk about HP calculators a lot (not always, but a majority of the time). Thank, Eddie

I say yes please Eddie! Your blog is always interesting, educational and fun. HP or not, please do post them!

RE: 35S Complex Number Extraction
You could use LAST X:
Code:
A001 LBL A
A002 ABS
A003 LAST X
A004 ARG
A005 COS
A006 x
A007 RTN

Cheers

The easiest way would be to add a signature with the link to your blog to your forum profile.

In this case I would prefer an equation. Either stored in the equation list or within a program. Which has the additional advantage of requiring just one stack register. And the original complex number is even preserved in Y.

ABS(REGX)*COS(ARG(REGX))

ABS(REGX)*SIN(ARG(REGX))

But there still is one main problem: the above method is quite straightforward, but its accuracy can be improved. Simply try 1+pi·i – the decomposed results show errors in the last digit:Re=0,999999999997, Im=3,1415926536).

Does someone know of an improved method?
