I believe the HPs and the 34S use Doolittle's Method for LU Decompositions (matrix inversions, determinants and solving systems of equations).

I'm not sure what approach Free42 uses. The solvers are definitely different, HP used the secant method, the 34S and Free42 use Ridder's method.

The LU Decomposition code in Free42 uses Crout's Method. The code comes straight from Numerical Recipes, section 2.3.
