Interesting HP27S Solver formulas - zswobbie12 - 05-04-2019 09:47 AM

Hi all, I'm looking for any interesting solver formulas not really maths stuff.
Games, if any (I somehow doubt).

Sorry if thats such a broad request, but I cannot find anything out there.

Regards,
Robin

Here's an excellent 27S article list compiled by jebem:

Likely not too many games, but plenty of topics to explore.

Thanks for that list, most interesting.
I would love to get hold of that HP27S Technical Applications book.

Robin

There is a scanned copy of it in the HP Museum Document Set.

It is a PDF with double-page, side-by-side scans but appears to be fully text searchable.

There was a scan of Popular Electronics posted a few months ago, which has Battle The Diver Bomber for the 25/25C, and I'll bet it would be simple enough that it could be implemented on the 27S (and probably even the 17BII; I wonder if the "bomber" is also a B-2):
