Algebraic to RPN
The code below takes an algebraic expression and converts it to an RPN string. The program itself is not all that useful (in my opinion) but it hopefully provides to those interested in programming expressions a bit of insight into how expressions are built.

For example, in the CAS view, type:

CRPN(x^2-4*x)

to obtain "x 2 ^ 4 x * - +"

EDIT: Joe Horn pointed out to me that the "+" appeared extraneous -- which was also my initial reaction. As it turns out, the CAS treats subtraction as a sequence of negation followed by addition. So the "-" operator is actually the negation operator, which can be verified by typing f:=neg(x) in the CAS view, and extracting the operation using f[1]. I never really gave this much thought, but it is neat to see how expressions are handled on a lower level.

Code:
#pragma mode( separator(.,;) integer(h32) )
#cas
CRPN(f):=
begin
  local rpn, op, par, n, j, g;

  rpn:="";
  op:="";
  par:="";
  if (type(f) <> DOM_SYMBOLIC) then
    rpn:=string(f);
    return(rpn);
  end;

  op:=string(f[1]);
  n:=size(op);
  op:=MID(op,2,n-2);
  n:=dim(f) + 1;

  for j from 2 to n do
    g:=f[j];
    if (type(g) <> DOM_SYMBOLIC) then
      par:=string(g);
    else
      par:=CRPN(g);
    end;
    if (j > 2) then rpn:=rpn + " "; end;
    rpn:=rpn + par;
    if ((j > 2) or (n == 2)) then
      rpn:=rpn + " " + op;
    end;
  end;

  return(rpn);
end;
#end

RE: Algebraic to RPN
Hello Han,

I appriciate many your program. I have the same from Wiiliam C WICKES from
HP 48 INSIGHTS (part II page 534) from 1992.

I was failure to translate to HP PRIME and you give me !

Thank again.

Gérard.

RE: Algebraic to RPN
extract parts and operators with [] acts as the PART command, please create a second version with PART cmd

PHP Code:
(x^2-4*x)[1→ '+'
(x^2-4*x)[2→ x^2
(x^2-4*x)[3→ -4*x

part
(x^2-4*x→ 2
part
(x^2-4*x,1→ x^2
part
(x^2-4*x,2→ -4*x
part
(x^2-4*x,0→ "+"

I am not sure why you would want a version using the part command, but here:

Code:
#pragma mode( separator(.,;) integer(h32) )
#cas
CRPN(f):=
begin
  local rpn, op, par, n, j, g;

  rpn:="";
  op:="";
  par:="";
  if (type(f) <> DOM_SYMBOLIC) then
    rpn:=string(f);
    return(rpn);
  end;

  op:=string(part(f,0));
  n:=size(op);
  op:=MID(op,2,n-2);
  n:=part(f);

  for j from 1 to n do
    g:=part(f,j);
    if (type(g) <> DOM_SYMBOLIC) then
      par:=string(g);
    else
      par:=CRPN(g);
    end;
    if (j > 1) then rpn:=rpn + " "; end;
    rpn:=rpn + par;
    if ((j > 1) or (n == 1)) then
      rpn:=rpn + " " + op;
    end;
  end;

  return(rpn);
end;
#end

Hi. The code with PART CMD, is simplified to the following, also rename some variables to auto-document the code.

PHP Code:
#pragma mode( separator(.,;) integer(h32) )
#cas
    
convToRPN(expr1):=
    
begin
      local rpnStr
operpartnpartspartJexpr2;

      
rpnStr:="";
      
oper:="";
      
partn:="";
      if (
type(expr1) <> DOM_SYMBOLICthen
        rpnStr
:=string(expr1);
        return(
rpnStr);
      
end;
      
expr1:=(x^2-4*x);
      
oper:=string(expr1[1]);  
      
parts:=size(oper);  
      
oper:=MID(oper,2,parts-2);  
      
parts:=dim(expr1) + 1;

      for 
partJ from 2 to parts do
        
expr2:=expr1[partJ];
        if (
type(expr2) <> DOM_SYMBOLICthen
          partn
:=string(expr2);
        else
          
partn:=convToRPN(expr2);
        
end;
        if (
partJ 2then 
          rpnStr
:=rpnStr " "
        
end;
        
rpnStr:=rpnStr partn;
        if ((
partJ 2) or (parts == 2)) then
          rpnStr
:=rpnStr " " oper;
        
end;
      
end;

      return(
rpnStr);
    
end;
#end

//(x^2-4*x)[1] -> '+'
//(x^2-4*x)[2] -> x^2
//(x^2-4*x)[3] -> -4*x


#pragma mode( separator(.,;) integer(h32) )
#cas
    
convToRPN2(expr1):=
    
begin
      local rpnStr
operpartnpartspartJexpr2;
      
      
rpnStr:="";
      
oper:="";
      
partn:="";
      if (
type(expr1) <> DOM_SYMBOLICthen
        rpnStr
:=string(expr1);
        return(
rpnStr);
      
end;
      
oper:=part(expr1,0);
      
parts:=part(expr1);

      for 
partJ from 1 to parts do
        
expr2:=part(expr1,partJ);
        if (
type(expr2) <> DOM_SYMBOLICthen
          partn
:=string(expr2);
        else
          
partn:=convToRPN2(expr2);
        
end;
        if (
partJ 1then 
          rpnStr
:=rpnStr " "
        
end;
        
rpnStr:=rpnStr partn;
        if ((
partJ 1) or (parts == 1)) then
          rpnStr
:=rpnStr " " oper;
        
end;
      
end;

      return(
rpnStr);
    
end;
#end 

convToRPN2(x^3); returns "x 3 ^"


///////////////

Running step by step convToRPN2(x^3);, for those who want to see the conversion of x^3 to RPN
more info on RPN
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_Polish_notation

PHP Code:
expr1:=x^3;
rpnStr:="";
oper:="";
partn:="";
oper:=part(expr1,0); //returns "^"
parts:=part(expr1); //returns 2
partJ:=1;
expr2:=part(expr1,partJ); //returns x
partn:=string(expr2); //returns "x"
rpnStr:=rpnStr partn// returns "x"
partJ:=2;
expr2:=part(expr1,partJ); //returns 3
partn:=string(expr2); //returns "3"
rpnStr:=rpnStr " "//returns "x "
rpnStr:=rpnStr partn//returns "x 3"
rpnStr:=rpnStr " " oper//returns "x 3 ^" 

Or in a list of steps, without comments to copy and paste them in the history view

PHP Code:
expr1:=x^3rpnStr:=""oper:=""partn:=""oper:=part(expr1,0); parts:=part(expr1); partJ:=1expr2:=part(expr1,partJ); partn:=string(expr2); rpnStr:=rpnStr partnpartJ:=2expr2:=part(expr1,partJ); partn:=string(expr2); rpnStr:=rpnStr " ";rpnStr:=rpnStr partnrpnStr:=rpnStr " " oper

returns

PHP Code:
x^3,"","","","^",2,1,x,"x","x",2,3,"3","x ","x 3","x 3 ^"

Thanks for this useful program.

I’m learning lots of things.
