A serious bug on HP 35s Message #1 Posted by Marcel Pelletier on 5 Oct 2007, 3:43 p.m. First, type in this short program: A001 LBL A A002 10 A003 STO I A004 1 A005 STO(I) A006 0.01 A007 STO I A008 VIEW(I) A009 ISG I A010 GTO A008 A011 RTN If you press XEQ A ENTER, you will see the content of the 10 registers create with a zero value. At each stop, you have to press the R/S key...BUT if you want to automate this, enter a PSE instruction after the VIEW(I) like this... ... A008 VIEW(I) A009 PSE ... and now if you press XEQ A ENTER you will see... (27)= 0.0000 (28)= 0.0000 So it like the count of the register have change! You view (27) but in fact this is (0)... So what's up Doc?
