Re: (wp34S) Am I Using alphaRCL Correctly? Message #7 Posted by Paul Dale on 15 Aug 2011, 8:03 p.m., in response to message #6 by Walter B
I know how to pack lots more software into the hardware. It will require a lot of code to be rewriting.
Other things mentioned include using flash for programs not RAM. This will ease pressure on the most precious resource on the device.
Which will, in turn, allow us to tag register contents as integer/string/real/complex/whatever.
I also suggested removing the 16C integer mode in favour of a more 50g like integer mode. Maintaining carry and overflow requires quite a bit of code space and execution time. People who want these features will still have the 34S which pushes them pretty much to their limits.
But as Walter wrote, the display is the big impediment to doing lots more.
