Looking at the different solutions I wrote more than 9 years ago I didn't have much trouble to understand the UserRPL program.

Computing Farey series is a program of trivial size on most any decent programming language (and more than a few indecent ones) so it's no wonder you still understand your RPL code. Try that with an RPL program of non-trivial size as I stated.

Quote:The BASIC version for HP-71B is missing I know and it might be quiet similar to Python: a short one- or three-liner. Take it as a mini-challenge.

I'll take it you're subtly addressing me to produce an HP-71B program to compute Farey series. I created one eons ago as part of my Euler Project's solutions but you missed the correct length: it's a two-liner (i.e.: trivial size) some 109 bytes long with nothing special about it so I'll omit it here.

Best regards.
