Is indirect addressing possible on either the 39g+ or 49g+? Thanks.

Eddie,

you can GET from a {list} or a [vector] and you can EVAL any quoted 'name'. In algebraic notation 'L(index)' gets the indexed value from a list (You probably need to EVAL to see a result.)

OK, thank you Marcus. I checked the manuals of both calculators and neither have an "indirection" command. I will probably use a list.

Indect addressing apepared in earlier HP calculator that had numbered registered and labels. Today, the HP33s has indirect addressing that works with the single-letter memory registers and labels. The graphics calculators don't have it since they support named variables. As the other comments pointed out, you can access specific elements in lists in a manner similar to accessing array elements in regular programming languages.
