For example, to see the checksum for the current program (the "cylinder" program):

67 bytes.

(hold)

Checksum and length.

 



 

If your checksum does not match this number, then you have not entered this program correctly.

You will see that all of the application programs provided in chapters 16 and 17 include checksum values with each labeled routine so that you can verify the accuracy of your program entry.

In addition, each equation in a program has a checksum. See "To enter an equation in a program line" earlier in this chapter.

Nonprogrammable Functions

The following functions of the HP 35s are not programmable:

Programming with BASE

You can program instructions to change the base mode using . These settings work in programs just as they do as functions executed from the keyboard.
