Dates are represented in "dd.mmyyyy" format if flag 0 is clear, or "mm.ddyyyy" format if flag 0 is set.
Before using any of the below functions, run "[GSB] .0" to initialise a few constants used throughout.
[A] converts a date in dd.mmyyyy (or mm.ddyyyy if F? 0) format into its Julian date number
[ B ] does the opposite of [A] by taking a Julian date number and converting it to dd.mmyyyy (or mm.ddyyyy) format
[C] takes a date in dd.mmyyyy (or mm.ddyyyy) format and gives you the day of the week from 0 (Sunday) to 6 (Saturday)
[D] takes a number of days (e.g. the difference between two Julian date numbers) and expresses it in weeks and days as ww.d
[E] does the opposite of [D] by taking a number of weeks and days ww.d and expressing it in days
Note that registers R0 to R6 are used in these functions and Flag 0 determines whether dates are interpreted/returned in dd.mmyyyy (clear) or mm.ddyyyy (set) format.
The Julian date number of a date is an integer that identifies the date in time. The progression is linear, so a date that is 'n' days in the future or the past from now has a Julian date number that is greater or smaller than today's Julian date number by 'n'.
To calculate the Julian date number of the date d/m/y (or m/d/y for our American cousins):
If m is 1 or 2:
Let Y' = y - 1 and let M' = m + 13
If m is 3 or greater:
Let M' = m + 1 and let Y' = y
Julian date number J = int(Y' x 365.25) + int(M' x 30.6001) + d + 1720982
To perform the reverse operation and get the "normal" date from a Julian date number:
Let J' = J - 1720982
Y' = int( (J' - 122.1) / 365.25 )
M' = int( (J' - int(Y' x 365.25)) / 30.6001 )
d = J' - int(M' x 30.6001) - int(Y' x 365.25)
if M' is 13 or lower:
m = M' - 1 and y = Y'
if M' is 14 or 15:
m = M' - 13 and y = Y' + 1
The day of the week is:
DOW = (J' + 5) MODULO 7
Examples:
I'm European so I'll be using dd/mm/yyyy format throughout. If you'd rather use mm/dd/yyyy then just make sure you set flag 0.

I just replaced the battery in a calculator that I hardly ever use. It has a capacity of 220mAh and the calculator sucks 6μA out of it when switched off. Assuming the battery just keeps on going until it's flat and then cuts out and assuming I never actually use the calculator again, on what date will the battery die?
Step 1 - find out how many days the battery is good for:
Code: Select all
220 [EEX] [CHS] 3 [ENTER] 6 [EEX] [CHS] 6 [÷] => 36,666.6667
24 [÷] [g] [INT] => 1,527.0000

[RCL] 7 [+] => 2,460,191.000
[STO] 8 (we'll want this for later)
[GSB] [B] [f] [PREFIX] => 3092023000
Just to be on the safe side I'll do that, say, 12 weeks before. What date is 12 weeks before 3/9/2023?
Code: Select all
12 [GSB] [E] [RCL] 8 [x<>y] [-]
