It's strange that you state it would be faster!?

Ok, I've now checked both versions with the emulator, I've used the biggest 12-digit primenumber 999999999989:
the new version (with INC X, EVEN?, INC X) needs about 5 secs and the old version (with NEXTP) needs about 50 secs, i.e. it is 10-times slower!
(I don't think this would be much different on a real WP34s)

Hallo Franz,

I was no knowing that you is autor of PF in libruary WP34s. I congratulate you because you are very cute. I am a bit tired but have you modified the PF program in the libruary ? You say velocity 10 best, well You know, now I have the real HP cable for WP34s, but I am afraid to use it because I no read good english in manual to do how to do. I vill wait to learn with Wife to know what to do.

I welcome you for Chrismas !
