Wow, that is impressive!

10 bytes for LBL and END, gives 10 bytes for 10 lines, so only 10 one byte instructions!

Thanks, Thomas.

Yes, only one-byte instructions available on most scientific HP calculators. Anyway only a couple a bytes shorter than your current solution.
As I wasn’t getting any improvement, I decided to change the approach, but only slightly.
I’m looking forward to your and others’ solutions. Hopefully someone comes up with a really outstanding one, mine is rather straightforward.

Best regards,

Gerson.
