Re: Differences between Software Library Listings and MoHPC Scans Message #4 Posted by J-F Garnier on 7 Jan 2007, 10:33 a.m., in response to message #1 by Les Wright
Here is a comparison of the High Level Math User Lib versions:
High Level Math:
1980 1982
Sin, Cos, exp integrals 81 77 (steps)
Eigenvalues/vectors 3rd order 179 280
Eigenvalues 3rd order 215 278
Chebyshev, etc.. Polynomials 201 201
16 points Gaussian Quadrature 115 101
Gamma Function 64 59
Bessel and Error functions 227 227
Char equation of 4x4 matrix 237 270
4x4 Matrix operations 408 427
1980 versions from personal french manual 00041-90243, Feb.80 (same program than MoHPC software lib)
1982 versions from english manual 00041-90083 Rev.D 11/82, from MoHPC DVD
Some programs are shorter in the latest version, a few are unchanged, but most are expanded, in this case, the operating mode changed, too. For instance, instead of storing directly matrix values into registers before running eigenvalue program, the new version includes a routine with a nice prompt message asking for each element. I guess that first versions were close translations of HP67 versions.
I could scan my French manual, but it may be more useful that someone does it with a English manual.
