HP-41Z update available. Message #1 Posted by 聲gel Martin on 11 May 2004, 11:28 a.m. A new version of the HP-41Z Complex Number Module is already available for downloading (see the web's other site). The new version includes 64 Complex Numbers functions, expanding on the original set. Now with full LASTZ support in every function. It includes a mass-key assignment option (ZKEYS) for all Complex versions of the standard functions. It also fixes the "SST discrepancy" - wrong results in SST execution. This version is pretty much the *final* one. A complete source code listing is also available, in case you're interested in looking under the hood. I'll welcome any feedback you may have! Best, 簍.

Re: HP-41Z update available. Message #2 Posted by Vieira, Luiz C. (Brazil) on 11 May 2004, 1:25 p.m., in response to message #1 by 聲gel Martin Hi, Angel; Congratulations! What a master piece! The "blue print" is almost a "low-level programming how-to". It's a quality document and the additional comments made it a must to those (like me) who want to understand and dare on HP41 machine language. Thank you! Luiz (Brazil)

Re: HP-41Z update available. Message #3 Posted by Veli-Pekka Nousiainen on 12 May 2004, 2:29 a.m., in response to message #2 by Vieira, Luiz C. (Brazil) Where? URL, please? I would also like to have to source to finally kick of my pre-Saturn assembler learning phase. [V. <)P. <)N.]

Re: HP-41Z update available. Message #4 Posted by 聲gel Martin on 12 May 2004, 2:52 a.m., in response to message #2 by Vieira, Luiz C. (Brazil) Luiz, thanks for your kind words. The 41Z project was a lot of fun, and I've learned a couple of tricks while doing it, it isn't rocket science (most of the functions are logical extensions to the 41 OS), but I'm glad it's all documented now in an open forum. Now it's time to "cast it on Clonix-stone"! (although its V41 incarnation is of course much faster!) Best, 簍.

Re: HP-41Z update available. Message #5 Posted by Matthias on 12 May 2004, 4:37 p.m., in response to message #1 by 聲gel Martin Hi 聲gel Very impressing your work on HP-41 programming. I would be glad to understand only 50% of what you do. But as you know I惴 a collector. In the past you released about 2-3 versions of Sandrom and arround 2-3 versions of 41Z. Did you add a Version code in CAT2? Otherwise it would be difficult for me to see, what version I have... Is this a stupid idea or a small thing to do for you? Greetings from Switzerland Matthias

Re: HP-41Z update available. Message #6 Posted by Angel Martin on 13 May 2004, 1:26 a.m., in response to message #5 by Matthias Matthias, if you execute the first function (XROM 01,00) that will give you the version info on the display. But I don't see a reason to keep the previous versions around, anyway. Just save the last one. Best, 'AM

Re: HP-41Z update available. Message #8 Posted by 聲gel Martin on 13 May 2004, 8:06 a.m., in response to message #7 by Sean I cannot post the URL here, per a request of this museum's curator - that I respect. You can find it in google, search for "v41 emulator" (without quotations). Best, 簍

Re: HP-41Z update available. Message #9 Posted by Sean on 13 May 2004, 7:38 p.m., in response to message #8 by 聲gel Martin Are you the author? I found one by Warren Furlow...

Re: HP-41Z update available. Message #10 Posted by 聲gel Martin on 14 May 2004, 2:57 a.m., in response to message #9 by Sean I'm the author of the 41Z Complex Number Module. Warren's the author of the emulator.
