RE: HHC 2017 RPN Programming contest information and results thread
After 40 years of not programming on my HP-41CX, I was just "HAPPY" to come up with a program that worked correctly even though my solution was 82b, (didn't count the registers). I spent most of my time trying to figure out how to format the display to show characters and the loop count, as well as merging "un" with "happy". Was in the process of optimizing to eliminate registers when time ran out. Congratulations to Roger Hill for winning the RPN programming contest. And congrats to Werner who came up with a nice 66b solution. Now that I can see all of the tips and tricks, I'll be armed with all of the shortcuts and clever stack manipulation for HHC 2018's contest!
Also, thank you to Gene for coming up with a challenging contest.
(BTW....the program ran MUCH faster on my phone emulator for the HP41CX)
