Survey: most used 12C programs Message #1 Posted by Eric Smith on 8 Feb 2008, 9:42 a.m. For the 12C (NOT Platinum), what are the programs you use most frequently? Do you keep a single program in your 12C most of the time, or are there multiple programs you use? If the programs you use are publicly available, links would be nice. Thanks, Eric

The article describing (and listing) my Trigonometrics program is freely available for download from this link, in PDF format: Valentin Albillo's Datafile article: HP-12C Tried & Tricky Trigonometrics Best regards from V.

Keep up the good work ! :-) ... and thanks a lot for your kind appreciation. Best regards from V.

Re: Survey: most used 12C programs Message #5 Posted by George Bailey (Bedford Falls) on 8 Feb 2008, 11:39 a.m., in response to message #4 by Valentin Albillo You may feel flattered! Your trig program for the 12C is awesome! I only find myself wishing you would find the time to do it all in 89 or 79 steps - so there would be room for a small additional program from time to time ;-)
