Just in case you wondered why it's so quiet here: we're fighting at the edge of complex plane ...
(Edit 2020-04-09: Meanwhile, 59% of our function set is implemented. Thanks to Martin and JohnBoydon.)
(Edit 2020-04-10: Peace at the edge of complex plane. And all contents of FIN are implemented (except TVM).)

Re: 43S News
Triggered by a discussion elsewhere: Should we call the programming language of the 43S "FOCAL"? This name was introduced for the keystroke programming language of the HP-41C, so it certainly applies to the one of the HP-42S, so ...
What do you think?

Re: 43S News
I'm an old DEC programmer and FOCAL has an entirely different meaning for me.

Re: 43S News
Yes, you're one of those why FOCAL couldn't be used officially by HP at those times (they found out too late)toml_12953 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 11, 2020 9:28 amI'm an old DEC programmer and FOCAL has an entirely different meaning for me.
Regards from another old DEC programmer, though in ASSEMBLER.

Re: 43S News
IIRC, FOCAL stands for Forty One CAlculator Language so for the 43S this translates to FTCAL or alternatively F3CAL

Re: 43S News
I love F3CAL
DM42 SN00284 & SN03835 running C47, HP34C, HP41CV, HP42S, HP35s, WP34S, HP Prime
Re: 43S News
I didn't want to say anything else, but at F3CAL I see the same link Tesla made with the Model 3(, S3XY).
So please, dump that term.

Re: 43S News
I was an old programmer for IBM RPGII
For me the keystroke programming language of a 43S system should be named KPL43.
