50G: calling Stat49Pro
Message #1 Posted by Sancerre (Phoenix) on 16 Sept 2008, 9:57 p.m.

Hi,

I would like to be able to embed a Stat49Pro command inside of an algebraic equation that will subsequently be used with the numerical solver. Here is a simplified version of what I want to do: Result=ZALPHA(x/y), where ZALPHA is a command from the Stat49Pro library. I haven't a whole lot of experience using external library calls in my equations, so I don't really know how to proceed.

Any and all help would be much appreciated.

Sancerre (real name: Tod)

Just a side comment, and then I'll let someone else answer your direct question... ;-)

StatPro is one of the BEST programs for the 50g that I have ever come across. It truly brings the statistics capabilities of the 50g above and beyond those of all the TI-8x series. I wish that HP would just buy the source code and slam it in the ROM somewhere -- it would probably make the 50g the best calculator out there for stats.

Just MHO.

thanks, bruce

Excuse my igorance, but what is Stat49Pro and where do you find it?

Sorry I can't help you with original question.

Regards Stuart.

I've downloaded the lib to my 50g and installed it in port 2. How can I run the commands from the prompt instead of the STAT menu? Do I need to enter a specific directory?

I had to enter 1043 ATTACH once. Now it's there.

Tod,

I've played around a little and came to the following solution:

'ZALPHA(x)' does not work but you can embed the command in a program object:

<< -> x << x ZALPHA >> >> 'ZA' STO

Now, ZA is a function to be used in an algebraic expression.
