But your point is still valid I guess.

Hi Guys

The SC function saves and discards information as per the instructions given in the respective calculator owner manuals with Continuous Memory.

For example, the HP-29C loses the T, Z and Y registers, Last X and [Deg Rad Grd] status, programs are halted and the program pointer is set to the first program step.

Yes, and I think that is perfect.
What I am wondering is though, wouldn't it make more sense to save the continuous memory once, for example after loading a program and presetting registers, and then having the calculator power up in that condition every time. Now it would power up like that once, and the next time memory would be clear unless SC was executed again.

Cheers,
Harald
