HP-29C Quick Reference Guide Message #1 Posted by Larry Fox on 18 June 2007, 12:53 p.m. I need a QRG for my HP-29C and notice that none is listed at hpmuseum.org or on their DVD. Is there anyone who would be interested in scanning their HP-29C Quick Reference Guide in color and passing it along in JPEG, PDF, or MS Word DOC format? Sincerely, L. Fox

Thanks! ..... New edition for Numerical Recipes Book Message #3 Posted by Namir on 18 June 2007, 4:11 p.m., in response to message #2 by Katie Wasserman Thanks for the Version 6 link. I went ahead and pre-ordered the DVD v6. And speaking of pre-orders, there is a new edition of Numerical Recipes (Cambridge Press) coming out in early August. If I am allowed one Numerical Analysis book, this is the one I choose. You can order it online (Amazon and the like). The new version also uses C++ source code but the code is more object-oriented than the one in the currently sold edition. The publisher is also making available an electronic version of the book (for pay). There is also a CD with all the source code of the various editions that will be offered.

Re: Thanks! ..... New edition for Numerical Recipes Book Message #4 Posted by Egan Ford on 18 June 2007, 6:00 p.m., in response to message #3 by Namir I have the 2ed C and F77 books. They have been invaluable. It is worth noting that the 2ed C, F77, and F90 are freely available as PDFs from nr.com. Having the PDFs are useful for searches.

Those who buy the book can buy lifetime subscriptions. Namir

Re: Thanks! ..... New edition for Numerical Recipes Book Message #6 Posted by Les Wright on 22 June 2007, 4:52 p.m., in response to message #5 by Namir Most of my recent UserRPL and SysRPL programming efforts have been grateful adaptations of NR code. Indeed, I must admit that the structure of RPL is indeed well suited for such translation. Even though it is tougher at first to learn vs. RPN keystroke programming, I am glad I have taken the time. Right now, my 49G+ is my most used calculator. A few months ago,I barely touched it. Les
