You may reassign [EXIT] as well, you're just advised to take proper care since this is one of the essential functions.

What shall this function do then? What "various other functions" do you have in mind? Thanks in advance for enlightenment.It would be nice if the WP-43S could support [Re⇄Im] on any number type, not just the complex types. There are various other functions on the CPX menu that could be changed to work on non-complex types too.
I'm confused (not unusual for me) Isn't the whole point of Re⇄Im to convert between a real and imaginary number? What other purpose could it have? Combining separate X-Y coordinates into a pair and vice-versa?Walter wrote: ↑Sun Jun 09, 2019 7:24 pmIan Abbott wrote elsewhere:What shall this function do then?

On HP-15C, [Re⇄Im] exchanges the real and imaginary parts of X (creating the imaginary stack first if necessary) and also disables stack lift, so you can enter both the real and imaginary parts in one stack position, so you don't lose Z. It can also be used for entering pure imaginary numbers. When the stack lifts, the imaginary X is set to 0 when you type a number, so pressing [Re⇄Im] leaves a pure imaginary number in X.Walter wrote: ↑Sun Jun 09, 2019 7:24 pmIan Abbott wrote elsewhere:What shall this function do then?

Thank you for reporting. Issue is fixed.Jaymos wrote: ↑Mon Jun 10, 2019 1:01 amA. Issue:
The angular mode example on p119 of the v0.12 manual does not work in the step when 0.01047 rad needs to be converted to degrees using >DEG. The R>D command does however work to get to 0.60 Degrees. Also >D.MS does not work, but rather D>D.MS does work to get to 0deg36min. Also >MULpi does not work, but D.MS> does get it back to the current mode of MULpi, as 0.00333 pi.
