Decimal to octal conversion for the HP-12C
Message #1 Posted by Kalevipoeg on 8 Nov 2009, 12:24 p.m.

Probably some of you are interested in mechanical calculators too. Watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGQTocT0Xr4

Therefore I tried to write a short program for the HP-12C this morning. Here it is.

Decimal to octal conversion on the HP-12C

01  STO 0
02  8
03  STO 1
04  0
05  RCL 0
06  X=0?
07  GTO 22
08  8
09  /
10  ENTER
11  INTG
12  STO 0
13  -
14  RCL 1
15  *
16  1
17  0
18  STO*1
19  RDN
20  +
21  GTO 05
22  RDN
23  GTO 00

Usage: Integer decimal number [R/S]

On the other hand, the stack registers are enough.
