The program RPNBASIC puts the HP 71B into RPN mode with arithmetic functions, power, square root, and π. The program contains room for one independent memory and a four level stack that works like the classic Hewlett Packard RPN calculators.
I have the array S set up for six slots:
Slot 1: X stack (display)
Slot 2: Y stack
Slot 3: Z stack
Slot 4: T stack
Slot 5: Independent memory stack
Slot 6: (temporary memory)
For an idea of how RPN works, check out this tutorial: http://edspi31415.blogspot.com/2011/09/rpn-basics.html
As a note, this program requires you to press the equals key [ = ] before you enter a number to the stack.
Example: 2 + 3 + 9 = 14
Keys:
[ = ], 2, [END LINE]
[ = ], 3, [END LINE], [ + ],
[ = ], 9, [END LINE], [ + ]
The keys available during RPNBASIC:
[ = ] Input
[ + ] Add: Y + X
[ - ] Subtract: Y - X
[ * ] Multiplication: Y * X
[ / ] Divide: Y/X
[ g ] [ / ] (^) Exponent: Y^X
[ Q ] Square Root √X
[ P ] Enter π to the stack
[ M ] Store X in independent memory
[ R ] Recall memory
[ C ] Clear X stack to 0
Stack operations:
[ S ] Swap with X and Y
[ D ] Roll stack down, result { Y, T, Z, X }
Exit the program: press [ E ]
