The Input Key
The
I
key is used to input values for variables and execute menu items.
The
I
key is also used in Reverse Polish Notation (RPN) mode to enter a number on the stack or duplicate it.
The Equals Key
The
=
key is used at the end of a mathematical operation to calculate the final result. For example,
1+2= returns a final result of 3.
The
=
key, when pressed outside of a mathematical operation, also allows you to request a calculation for the value of an item. This request only applies to items that can be calculated.
Using the Input and Equals Keys
Suppose you wanted to calculate the effective interest rate for a 12% nominal interest rate with
12 payments per year in the Interest Conversion (IConv) menu. To open the IConv menu, press
:&
. Nom %= displays on the top line, and the current value assigned to the nominal
6 Basic Features
interest rate is displayed on the bottom line. With this screen displayed, press
12I
to input a new value for the nominal rate. Press
<
followed by
=
to calculate the value for the effective rate. See Figure 4.
Figure 4
When an item for which the
=
key is valid displays, the small annunciator (=) is displayed on the top line at the right of the screen. Do not confuse this small annunciator (=) with the larger annunciator
(
=
)
found to the right of a variable.
When an item for which the
I
key is valid displays, the INPUT annunciator is displayed on the top line at the right of the screen.
Editing and Clearing Entries
The On/CE Key
Pressing
O
one time cancels current number entries, mathematical operations, or a menu selection, in that order.
Pressing
O
repeatedly when performing multiple operations cancels one operation at a time, from the latest to the earliest.
The Reset Menu
The Reset menu allows you to reset some, or all, of the menu items, variables, and registers to their default values.
To open the Reset menu, press
:x
. TVM displays on the top line. Press
<
or
> repeatedly to scroll to a specific item. To validate a choice and reset the selected items, press
I
. Press
O
to cancel. If you select the command to reset the cash flow (Cash Flow), statistics (Stats ), programs (Prgm)* or all values (All ) items, you will be prompted to confirm your choice. At the Del. All?, Del. Data?, Del. Prgm?*, and Del. CF? prompts, press
I again to confirm the reset, or
O
to cancel. While working within a specific menu, pressing
:x takes you directly to the item of the Reset menu that allows you to reset that specific menu. For example, if you are working in the Bond menu and you wish to reset all your entries in the Bond menu, with any item of the Bond menu displayed, press
:x
. Bond displays on screen. At this prompt, pressing
I
resets the Bond menu and returns you to the last item you were working with in the Bond menu.
* Only applies to the HP 30b.
Basic Features
7
Notes about Special Menus
The Mode, Memory, Math and Reset menus are unique menus; they allow you to work in another menu simultaneously without having to exit. For example, if you were working in the
Bond menu prior to entering one of these menus, pressing
O
to exit returns you to your previous work in the Bond menu.
Memory and the Memory Menu
The Memory menu contains the following items: memories 1–9 (Mem 1–9) and 0 (Mem 0),
Cash Flow, Statistics (Stats), programs (Prgm)*, and Memory. To enter the menu, press
:t
. Press
<
or
>
repeatedly to scroll through the items starting with memory 1 (Mem 1).
When a memory item is displayed, you can key in a new number and modify the value of the memory by pressing
I
.
For more information about storing and recalling numbers, refer to the section titled, Storing
and Recalling Numbers in Chapter 2.
The Cash Flow and Statistics data share the same memory and are limited to a combined total of 50 memory slots. The number displayed with Memory refers to the number of remaining memory slots. When the cash flow or statistics items are displayed, a number also appears on the bottom line. This number indicates the number of memory slots used by the cash flow or statistical data.
290 bytes are available for programs. The Prgm* menu item displays the number of bytes used.
Press
I
on the Cash Flow, Statistic, or Prgm* menu item to erase the associated data.
Since entering data in these menus can represent a significant amount of work, you will be asked to confirm your choice. At the Del.Data?, Del. Prgm?*, or Del.CF? prompts, press
I
to confirm, or
O
to cancel.
Accessing Menus and Menu Maps
Many of the calculator's functions are located within menus. To access a menu, press the key, or secondary-function, key combination for the menu in which you wish to work. To exit a menu, press
O
.
For example, to access the Break-even menu, press
:
.
* Only applies to the HP 30b.
8 Basic Features
Once opened, you can scroll through the items in the menu by pressing
< or
> repeatedly. In most menus, when you arrive at the last item in a menu, pressing
< returns you to the first item. Similarly, pressing
> once on the first menu item scrolls to the last item in the menu.
Most items consist of two parts: a name and an associated number. For example, the Fixed item in the Break-even menu (Figure 7) is displayed in Figure 5.
Figure 5
The large (=) annunciator shows that the value assigned to Fixed is 120,000. For example, if you perform a calculation with the operating mode set to RPN with this item displayed by pressing
1I2+
, Fixed is still selected as the current item, but the large
(=) annunciator is now turned off, indicating that the 3 is not the value assigned to Fixed (see
Figure 6).
Figure 6
At this point, to return to the display of the Fixed menu item shown in Figure 5, press
O
.
Some menus have sub-menus. If an item represents a sub-menu, pressing
I with that menu item displayed opens the sub-menu. Once the menu sub-menu is open, use
> and
<
to navigate through the items of the sub-menu, unless otherwise directed.
In this manual, diagrams called Menu Maps are included at the beginning of each section to assist you with navigating through the menus described in that section. For an example of a menu map, see Figure 7 below. Once opened, use the
> and
<
keys to navigate through the menu items of the Break-even menu. The downward arrows in the map indicate you press
<
to scroll to the next item. If a press of the
I
key is required to open a sub-menu, the word INPUT appears in the arrow(s). For examples of menu maps with submenus, see chapters 10-12. The return arrows direct you to the next item displayed after the last item in a menu. For example, in Figure 7, pressing
<
on the last item in the menu returns you to the FIXED item.

Figure 7 Menu Map of the Break-even menu
There are four types of menu items:
1. Read/write. Read/write menu items, such as Fixed in the Break-even menu shown above, are easily recognizable, because when they are selected, both the INPUT and small (=) annunciators are lit. When lit, these annunciators indicate that keying in a number and pressing
I
will store the entered number in the displayed menu item. Pressing
=
(outside of a mathematical operation) calculates the value for that item based on available data.
2. Read-only. Read-only items such as Internal Rate of Return (IRR% ) in the IRR menu are display-only; they are values computed internally by the calculator.
3. Write-only. Write-only items, such as investment interest rate (Inv. I% ) in the Net Present
Value (NPV) menu, are similar to read/write items in that the INPUT annunciator is lit when these items are selected, indicating that keying in a number and pressing
I
stores that number in that menu item. However, the
=
key does not calculate a value for that item.
4. Special items. Special items, such as the Degree/Radian option in the Mode menu, the items of the Reset menu, and the items of the Percent Calculation (%calc ) menu perform an action when
I
is pressed. Depending on the menu, this action can be the selection of a sub-menu (%calc), changing a mode or setting (Mode menu), or erasing data (Reset menu)
10 Basic Features
2 Mathematical Calculations
Mathematical Functions
Mathematical functions are located:
• On keys, such as,
+-*/
, etc.
• On shifted, or secondary functions, such as,
:p
• In the Math menu,
:s
Number Entry and Display
Numbers are entered by pressing:
• Numbered keys,
0
–9
• The decimal point
.
• The
}
key
• The
:w
keys
To correct a number entry, press the backspace key,
{
. Each press of
{
erases the last digit or symbol you entered.
To enter a number in the display, press the number digits successively. A number can have up to 12 digits.
To change the sign of a number from positive to negative, press
}
.
Use scientific notation to enter very large and very small numbers. For example, to enter the number 1.23x 10
127 in scientific notation, first enter the mantissa (1.23) and then press
:w and enter the number (127) representing the exponent. The exponent must have a value between –499 and +499. If an expression has more than 12 digits, or if an operation returns a result with more than 12 digits, the calculator automatically displays scientific notation.
Figure 1 Scientific Notation in FIX=2 Mode
Mathematical Calculations 11
Chain Mode
Calculations in Chain mode are interpreted in the order in which they are entered. For example, entering the following numbers and operations as written from left to right,
1+2*3=
,
Figure 2 Calculation in Chain Mode
NOTE: if you press an operator key,
+-*/
, after
=
, the calculation is continued using the currently displayed value.
In Chain mode, if you wish to override the left to right order of entry, use parentheses
(D to prioritize operations.
For example, to calculate 1 + (2 x 3), you may enter the problem as written from left to right,
with parentheses to prioritize the multiplication operation. See Table 2-1 below.
Table 2-1 Simple Arithmetic Calculations in Chain Mode
Keys
1+
(2*3D
Display Description
Sets operational priority, inputs numbers, and multiplies 2 and 3.
=
Adds 1 to 6 and returns 7.00 on the bottom line as the final result.
Algebraic Mode
To set the calculator in Algebraic mode, refer to the section titled, The Mode Menu: Setting
Preferences
in Chapter 1
.
In Algebraic mode, multiplication and division have a higher priority than addition and subtraction. For example, in Algebraic mode, pressing
1+2*3= returns a result of 7.00. In Chain mode, the same key presses return a result of 9.00.
In Algebraic mode, operations between two numbers have the following priority:
• Highest priority: the power function (
y
x )
• Second priority: combinations and permutations
• Third priority: multiplication and division
• Lowest priority: addition and subtraction
12 Mathematical Calculations
For example, key in 1 + 2 x 5 nPr 2
2
in Algebraic mode by pressing:
1+2*5:b2:m=
. The result is 241.
NOTE: the calculator is limited to 12 pending operations. An operation is pending when it is waiting for the input of a number or the result of an operation of higher priority.
Reverse Polish Notation (RPN) Mode
To set the calculator in RPN mode, refer to the section titled, The Mode Menu: Setting
Preferences in Chapter 1. In RPN mode, numbers are keyed in first, separated by pressing
I
or
=
, followed by an operation key.
NOTE: pressing
I
or
= is optional after keying in a number, if the next key pressed is an operation.
Each time you press an operation or function key in RPN, the answer is calculated immediately and displayed. For example, suppose you wanted to add two numbers in RPN, 1 and 2. Press
1I2+
. The result, 3.00, is calculated and displayed immediately on the bottom line along with the (+) symbol on the top line.
NOTE: in RPN mode, when you are in a menu for which
I
or
=
are valid, pressing these keys enters the number, but it also performs the action associated with the key for the menu item, which is generally saving the number in the variable or calculating the item's value.
The RPN Stack
RPN works by placing numbers in storage registers called the stack. The RPN stack has four
levels numbered 1– 4. The levels are stacked on top of one another. See Figure 3.

one number. When a number is typed and entered into the stack by pressing
I
, this new number is "pushed" into level one of the stack, and each number already in the stack moves up one level. The number in Level 4, –15, is pushed out and is lost.
When an operation is performed on the stack, addition
(
+
)
for instance, the calculator
"pops" or moves the two numbers from the bottom levels (Levels 1 and 2) out of the stack, performs the operation, and "pushes" the results back into the stack.
With the numbers entered into the stack as shown in Figure 3, pressing
+
changes the
stack as shown in Figure 4. Note that when the numbers are "popped" out to add 23 and 41,
Level 4 of the stack remains unchanged.

For more complex problems requiring two or more operations, you do not need to enter parentheses to set operational priority. Key in numbers and operations inside the parentheses first, followed by those outside of the parentheses. If a problem has more than one set of parentheses, start by working with the operations and numbers in the innermost parentheses and work out. For example, calculate:

Storing and Recalling Numbers
The calculator has ten memories available for use during calculations. These memories are numbered from 1–9 and 0. To store a number in a memory, press
:$
, followed by the key representing the memory number. To recall a number stored in a memory, press
L followed by the key representing the memory number. You can use the store and recall functions for these memories any time a number is displayed, or when you wish to enter a number.
For example, to store 15 in memory 1, press
15:$1
.
To recall the number in memory 1, press
L1
.
You can also perform operations to numbers stored in memories. For example, press
5:$2 to store 5 in memory 2. To add 12 to the value of memory 2, press
12:$+2
. Later on, during a calculation, you can press
L2 to recall memory 2. Note how the current value now stored in memory 2 is 17, (5 +12).
+-*
and
/
are valid mathematical operations for memories.
To view the stored values in memories 1–9 and 0, press
:t
, followed by
< or
>
repeatedly to scroll through each memory starting with memory 1 (Mem 1). Note that in the Memory menu, you can change the value of any memory by selecting the memory and typing a number followed by the t
key.
Recall Arithmetic
In RPN, typing
L+2 adds the value of memory 2 to the first level of the stack, but it will not modify the stored value of memory 2. This is useful, as it "saves" one stack level.
You can also use
-*
and

Storing and Recalling with Time Value of Money (TVM) Keys
To store the current number in the Time Value of Money (TVM) variables, press
:$ followed by the desired TVM key.
To recall the stored value of a TVM variable, press
L
followed by the key of the desired
TVM variable.
Note: pressing
L does not calculate the variable; it recalls the current value.

Recalling a Menu Item Value in a Menu
In a menu, you can recall the current value of a menu item. For example, open the Interest
Conversion menu (IConv) by pressing
:&
. With Nom.% displayed, pressing
2*L== calculates 2 times the nominal rate. This feature is useful when you need to insert the contents of a menu item into an algebraic operation.
Recalling and Storing Values in the Data and Cash Flow Menus
If you store an index (i) from 0 to 99 in the variable 0, you can then use the store/recall features to store a number in the Data and Cash Flow menus. Press either
:$ or
L
, followed by the CashFlow key
C
, to either store or recall a number, as desired, in the
CF(i/2) (if i is even) or #CF((i-1)/2) if i is odd.
In addition, you can store or recall x(i/2+1) if i is even, or y((i+1)/2) if i is odd, as desired, by pressing the Data key
:y instead of the CashFlow key,
C
, as shown above.
Rounding Numbers
All calculations are performed internally with 15-digit precision and are rounded to 12 digits when returning the results. In certain instances, calculations are performed internally with greater than 15-digit precision.
When displayed, a number is further rounded to the number of digits after the decimal point set by the FIX item in the Mode menu. The default setting is two digits to the right of the decimal point. For more information, refer to the section titled, The Mode Menu: Setting
Preferences in Chapter 1.
NOTE: the FIX setting only affects the display; it does not affect the actual numbers.
Percentages
In Algebraic or Chain modes, pressing
%
divides a number by 100. For example, pressing
25% returns 0.25.
To find a percentage of a given number, key in the number and multiply it by the desired percentage, followed by
=
. For example, to find 25% of 200, press
200*25%= to return a result of 50.
To add or subtract a percentage of a number, key in the first number, followed by
+
or
-
and the percentage followed by
%
. Finish your calculation with
=
. For example, to add 10% to 50, press
50+10%=
to return a result of 55.
Mathematical Calculations 25
In RPN mode, the
%
key calculates x % of the number on Level 2 of the stack, when x is the number on Level 1 of the stack. It does not modify the number on Level 2 of the stack, and thus allows you to perform addition or subtraction after pressing
%
to add or subtract x % from the number.
For example,
200I25% returns 50, but 200 is still on Level
2 of the stack, and pressing
-
returns 150, or 200-25%.

Time Value of Money (TVM) Keys
Cash flow diagrams are useful tools for analyzing financial situations, as they help you identify the TVM functions needed to resolve your problem. A cash flow diagram is a drawing with a set of vertical arrows arranged on a horizontal line. The horizontal line represents the period of time from the beginning of the financing to the end. The vertical arrows represent the money or cash flows at certain times throughout the period. The arrows' length is proportional to the cash flow amount each arrow represents; a longer arrow indicates a larger amount, a shorter arrow, a smaller amount. Each arrow's position on the line represents the time at which the cash flow occurs. The orientation of the arrow, up or down, represents the
"direction" of the cash flow: up for money received, down for money paid out. See Figure 1.

Note: in TVM Standard, C/YR is the same number as P/YR in TVM calculations, since most interest calculations are based on the same number of payments and compounding periods per year, and interest rate conversions are commonly linked to a subsequent TVM calculation.
This feature is provided for your convenience, but this means modifying one number also modifies the other when you are calculating in TVM Standard.
The IConv menu permits you to solve for C/YR, but the result is not always a positive integer.
TVM calculations, however, require C/YR to be an integer larger than zero. If you attempt to perform a TVM calculation without a valid value for C/YR or P/YR, an invalid P/YR error (ER:
Invalid P/YR) will occur.
If you set C/YR to 0, the resulting interest conversions are calculated assuming a continuous compounding. As stated above, 0 is not a valid value for P/YR or C/YR when used in TVM calculations, and you will have to reset it to a valid value before performing TVM calculations.

Figure 1 The Menu Map for the P/YR Menu
In Canada, interest rates for mortgages are, by law, given as a nominal interest rate, compounded twice yearly. This means that the compounding period for the per-period interest rate calculation differs from the compounding period when payments are made.
By default, the calculator performs calculations assuming that the number of compounding periods always equals the number of payments per year. You can, however, enable the TVM
Canada option in the Mode menu, which enables you to select the number of compounding periods per year. For more information, refer to Chapter 1, Basic Features.
To open the P/YR menu, press
:[
. Note the following change in features with TVM
Canada enabled:
1. The P/YR key opens a menu with two items: P/YR and C/YR in which you can specify the number of payments and compounding periods per year. See Figure 1.
2. In the Interest Conversion menu, the C/YR item is the same value as the C/YR item in the
P/YR menu, and it no longer affects P/YR. However, note how if you now change the value of P/YR, the calculator automatically sets C/YR so it equals your new value assigned to P/YR. This means that if you modify P/YR, you also need to modify C/YR, if
P/YR and C/YR are different values in your TVM problem.

Figure 1 Cash Flow Diagram
In the calculator, a cash flow list is a set of numbered pairs, CF(n) and #CF(n), where n is the index of the cash flow list. Each pair represents one or more cash flows in a cash flow diagram. As with TVM problems, it helps to sketch a cash flow diagram as a first step in solving cash flow problems. For some examples of cash flow diagrams, see Figure 3 at the end of this chapter.
CF(n) represents the monetary value of the cash flow; #CF(n) is the number of consecutive occurrences of that cash flow. By default, #CF(n) is equal to 1, as most cash flows occur only once. However, in cases where a cash flow is repeated multiple times, using #CF(n) instead of entering the cash flow value multiple times saves calculation time and memory space in the calculator.
To enter a cash flow list, press
C
to open the cash flow menu.
For each cash flow item, first enter the monetary value followed by
I
, then enter the number of occurrences followed by
I
.
If a cash flow occurs once, you do not need to type
1I
. Simply press
I or
< as 1 is the default.
Cash Flows 37
To erase a cash flow list, with any cash flow displayed press

An option is a contract between two parties giving party A the option to buy or sell an asset from/to party B at a given price.
The Black-Scholes model is used to calculate an estimated fair market price for that option, meaning that it calculates the fair price that someone would pay to buy or sell the option to later buy or sell an asset at a given price!
The asset or stock that the option refers to is often called the “underlying asset.”
The Black-Scholes calculation is based on the contract terms (i.e., the price and date at which the underlying asset can be sold or bought), the quality of the asset itself, its price, volatility and return on investment, and the other available alternatives, such as storing your asset in a safe investment account, for example.
Intuitively, if the option is to buy a stock at 10, and the stock is already worth 30 and has little volatility, the value of the option is close to 30-10=20, plus or minus other risk factors. Table 7-
1 lists the Black-Scholes menu items along with their descriptions.

Description
Current underlying asset price
Predetermined price at which the option agrees to buy or sell the underlying asset at maturity.
Time remaining until expiration of the option in years.
Current risk-free interest rate (for example, the current US Treasury Bond rate).
Degree of unpredictable change of the stock price. This is usually approximated by the standard deviation of the variation of the stock price.
Estimation of the average dividend yield of the stock as a percentage of its price.
Estimated fair market value for a call option at expiration (a call option is the right to purchase the asset at a given price).
Estimated fair market value for a put option at expiration (a put option is the right to sell the asset at a given price).
Note that if you enter a history of the underlying asset price and its yield in the data menu, pressing the
= key on the Volatility % menu item automatically calculates the standard deviation of the variation of the asset price based on the given data. Pressing
=
in the
Dividend % menu item automatically calculates the average dividend as a percent of the asset price.

Description
Straight line is a method of calculating depreciation presuming an asset loses a certain percentage of its value annually at an amount evenly distributed throughout its useful life.
Sum-of-the-years' digits is an accelerated depreciation method.
In SOYD, the depreciation in year y is (Life-y +1)/SOY of the asset, where SOY is the sum-of-the-years for the asset, or, for an asset with a 5-year life,
5+4+3+2+1=15.
Declining balance is an accelerated depreciation method that presumes an asset will lose the majority of its value during the first few years of its useful life.
Declining balance crossover is an accelerated depreciation method that presumes an asset will lose the majority of its value in the first few years of its useful life, but that it will revert to a consistent depreciation during the latter part of its life, which is then calculated using the straight line method.
Straight line French. This method of depreciation is similar to the Straight line method, except an actual calendar date in mm.dd format is entered in for
Start= to indicate when the asset was first placed into service.
French amortization. This method is an accelerated depreciation method with a crossover to the French Straight Line method.

Programming the HP 30b
This chapter applies only to the HP 30b, and explains how to program specifically on the HP
30b. If you are unfamiliar with the basics of programming, you may have trouble understanding some of the following information. Reviewing the material and practicing the concepts illustrated below will help you understand how this feature works on the HP30b.
The HP 30b Business Professional is a powerful business calculator, but it may lack a function important to you. The HP 30b programming functions allow you to create up to ten programs to fulfill your needs. In order to keep the calculator keyboard clear and consistent, the programming functions are not written on the keyboard.
However, included in the calculator package, you should find an overlay which shows the programming functions. This is designed to be placed on the top surface of the calculator and left in place for the life of the calculator. If you are interested in programming the calculator, you will need to place the overlay on your keyboard before getting started.
Key Presses for Program Instructions
Enter the Program menu by pressing
: followed by
E
. The instructions specific to programming (illustrated on the overlay) are inserted by pressing
:
and simultaneously pressing the key with the desired programming instruction. Then release both keys before pressing any additional keys for your program. In the following chapter, this combination is represented in the following manner:
(HOLD)
This sequence is identical to using the shift key on a computer keyboard to invoke the shiftedfunction.
For reference, the table on the following page lists the keys along with their associated programming instructions.

All programming key combinations listed in the above table require you to press the key and (HOLD) it while simultaneously pressing the desired program instruction. The instructions are described in more detail in the following pages.
Almost any function you perform with the calculator can be programmed. A program allows you to repeat an algorithm or sequence of commands without having to retype all the keys each time you want to use that particular function.
76 Programming
Programming Example
The following programming example, and all examples in this chapter, were written with
Chain or Algebraic set as the operating mode. Since a program executes the keys exactly as if you were manually pressing them, the current operating mode affects how the program executes. If you normally operate in RPN, verify your operating mode is set to either Chain or
Algebraic before proceeding so you can follow along with the examples below.
For more information about setting the operating mode, refer to the section titled, The Mode
Menu: Setting Preferences in Chapter 1, Basic Features.
The volume of a sphere is represented by the equation,

. We will create a program that can calculate the volume of a sphere without having to retype all the keys each time you wish to calculate the volume of a given sphere. Verify your FIX setting is set for three digits to the right of the decimal point. For more information on the FIX setting, refer to the section titled,

Enters the number 5 (the sphere radius) and executes program 0. The result, the volume of the sphere, is 523.6. We press
=
twice: the first press completes the entry of the 5 (after all, we could have been in the process of entering an equation, such as 5*2). The second press runs the program.
Program Step 0
Programs start at step 1, however, if you edit a program by pressing
I
with the program displayed and press the up key
>
, you will find there is a step 0. Press any key with step 0 displayed and that key becomes a shortcut for the program. You may also assign any
:
(HOLD) key combination as well.
For example, with the sphere example shown in Table 13-2, after your program has calculated the solution, press
:E
to open the program menu once again. Prgm 0 is displayed,

Reassigning Menu Functions
Often, the best use for a program is to bring a function you use frequently out onto the keyboard. For example, if you use SIN frequently, you may want to have ASIN available directly on the keyboard as well. Having the ability to assign keys permits you to do this easily.

Tests and Jump Functions
When creating a program, there is often a need for the conditional execution of an instruction based on a specific condition, as well as the repetition of a set of instructions.
This is handled on the HP 30b using the GOTO, LBL (label) and Test instructions. LBL is an instruction that does not do anything by itself, but it acts as a marker for Jump instructions.
1. To enter a label or GOTO instruction, press and hold
:
and simultaneously press the
GOTO, GOTOT, or GOTOF key, then release both keys.
2. Type a number between 00 and 99 (for numbers smaller than 10, you must type the 0 first, such as 03).
3. For example, (HOLD) creates label 03 in your program. You can then use a GOTO 03 instruction to jump to that label from any location in your program to the position of the label. GOTOT (Go To If True) and GOTOF (Go To If False) will only jump if the current displayed number is non-0 (true) for GOTOT or 0 (false) for GOTOF.
Used together, these instructions allow you to create programs like the following:
8=
LBL 01
DISP 5
- 1=
GOTOT 01
STOP
Use the following keystrokes to enter the program:
1.
(HOLD)
2.
(HOLD)
3.
(HOLD)
4.
(HOLD)
. This program has 13 bytes, and the checksum is 234. This program counts from eight to zero displaying each number 1 second.
Programming 81
Note:
• Label numbers must be unique. Only one label with a given number can exist in the calculator.
• You can jump from one program to another if you know that there is a specific label number in another program.
• Use the tests
?
,
?
,
?
,
?
(the top row of keys) to verify if two numbers are equal, different, and strictly, or not strictly, greater or smaller.
These are dual operator-operands and are used in the same way as addition or multiplication ( in Algebraic and Chain modes, number1 ?= number2 =, and in
RPN mode, number1
I
number2 ?= ) are used, in that they return 0 if false, and 1 if true. Note that in RPN mode, the tests do not remove the arguments from the stack, but do push a 0 or 1.
Long Programs and Battery Life
Although it is possible to create programs on the HP 30b that can run for a long period of time (calculating PI to 700 decimal places, for example) this is not something that we advise, as it will drain the batteries in less than a day.
Programming on the HP 30b was designed to create small programs to perform a function not present in the calculator, or to automate a task requiring many keystrokes and then run relatively quickly. If a program takes more than one second to run, the CPU speed will be reduced in order to preserve battery life.
Sub-Function Call
It is often useful in a program to have the option to reuse a sub-program from various locations.
To avoid having to retype these sub-programs each time they are necessary, you can use the
(HOLD) and (HOLD) functions.
CALL, followed by a label number, will jump to the specified label, in the same way a GOTO instruction does, but, when the RETURN instruction is encountered, the program will continue execution just after the CALL function. This is equivalent to you temporarily pausing in an activity to answer a phone call, and then returning to your prior activity after the call. Up to four calls can be nested at the same time. Another way to picture this might be going to turn off your stove, while you are answering the doorbell that rang while you were answering your phone, while you were writing an email… it's hard for us, but computers are good at stacking tasks in this way.
Enter a call function the same way you enter a GOTO function.

Other Programming Functions
(HOLD) thus one second.
DISP: takes a number that represents 1/5 of a second. DISP5 is
(HOLD) STOP: Stops the execution of the program. This instruction should be placed at the end of every program.
(HOLD) R/S: Pauses the program execution and returns to the normal system.
You can then resume program execution by pressing for example, when you need to enter a number.
again. This can be used,
(HOLD) DSE ( ) and (HOLD) ISG ( ), followed by 1 digit (0 to 9): Loop control function. Place a number of the form ccccc.eeeii where cccc is the counter,
eee is the end value for the counter and ii is the increment in variable 1. For example, DSE 1 will decrement the counter part of the variable by ii (if ii is 0, it decrements by 1) and, if cccc is less or equal to eee, it will skip the next instruction (usually a GOTO).
For example, to loop from 0 to 50, incrementing by 3 each loop, use 0.05003 as start the value and the ISG instruction. The following program will loop from 0-50, incrementing by 3 each loop and pause shortly at each loop to show the counter. At the end, it will leave 12 with a blinking cursor. Once in Program mode, select an unused program number and press:

Saving, Restoring, and Modifying Mode Settings
Often, programs are designed to run in a specific mode (for example, FIX 4 or RPN). You can use
L:u to recall the current mode, save it, modify the settings, either by going in the menu, or using the
$:u
function and then restoring it. For example:
1.
2.
L:u$1
recalls and stores the current mode settings in Memory 1.
:u4IO
selects FIX=4.
3. Your program:
L1:$:u restores the mode settings to what they were at the beginning of the program.
4.
Lu
returns a 12 digit number: CactdmrvAOff. See Table 13-4 for a description of each digit.

86 Programming
Solve
The solve key is not programmable, but it is a powerful addition to the calculator functionality.
The solve function utilizes HP Solve, a feature unique to HP calculators, which allows you to find a number for a variable that will cause a program to return a 0. This can be used to solve complex equations.
For example, if you want to solve x
x
-y=0.
1.
:E<<I
(select and edit program 2)
2.
L1:hL1-L2=
(HOLD)
(enter program var1
var1
-var2=)
3. Press
O
to exit. Store 3 into variable 2 by pressing
3:$1
. Press
:E and note that Prgrm 2 is selected, as the calculator displays the program that was last edited. For verification, this program has 11 bytes, and the checksum, 199.
4. Press
:
(HOLD)
2
to solve for variable 2. The calculator will attempt to find what value in variable 2 would cause the program to result in 0. In this case, the result is 27.
5. Now store 10 into variable 2:
10:$2
. Since Prgrm 2 was the last program selected in the program menu, you can use the SOLVE feature directly. Press
:
(HOLD)
1 to solve for variable 1, such that the result of the program is
0. The result this time is 2.506184..., since you stored 10 into variable 2.
6. You can verify this is correct by pressing
L1:hL1= and see that 10 is returned.
