Your result is almost exact. Except the first and last step:

Code:

01>LBL 'RR        4    <= Alpha labels require 4 bytes + #characters = here 6 bytes
...
43 END          ----   <= an END requires 3 bytes
                 60?

So your program uses 2 + 3 more bytes, i.e. 65 bytes in total.
And that's exactly what my hardware 41CV reports after SAVEP and RCLPT.

BTW, in an earlier post you said...

Quote:...the lack of some comparison tests on the HP-41 is always a problem, at least for me.

The '41 features 10 out of 12 possible comparison tests, i.e. all except X≥Y? and X≥0?.
These two can be replaced by a simple combination of X≠Y? and X>Y?  resp.  X≠0? and X>0?.
