Hi Eddie,

Thank you for the tutorial. I am looking forward for the next installments.

Just a comment: in RPN you can also call the program as follows :

    arg_1 [space] arg_2 [space] ... arg_n [space] TEST [Enter]

or this way:

    arg_1 [Enter]
    arg_2 [Enter]
    ...
    arg_n [Enter]
    TEST  [Enter]

There is no need of using parenthesis nor stating the number of arguments. If the arguments are not completed, the calculator answers with a "Error: bad argument count", similar to the 50g's "Error: Too few arguments".

Regards,

Miguel
