Trigo or Tobias? - aurelio - 03-29-2024 08:25 PM
I realize, curiously, that HP, in writing the user manuals for different calculators, has used, as a practical example of calculation, the solution of the same problem. This is how eng. "Tobias" in the HP67 manual, (page 92 colour and 102 b&w), became eng. "Trigo" in that of the HP29c, (p.78), see attached pics

Mine is a color manual (HP-67 Owner’s Handbook and Programming Guide – 00067-90011 Rev. D 4/77), but this is at page 102, colors blue and white though.
Anyway, I prefer “Engineer Trigo Slothrop”, but I am too biased :-)
