Extending aplets

Aplets are the application environments where you explore different classes of mathematical operations.

You can extend the capability of the HP 39G/40G in the following ways:

•Create new aplets, based on existing aplets, with specific configurations such as angle measure, graphical or tabular settings, and annotations.

•Transmit aplets between HP 39G calculators via an infra red link.

•Download e-lessons (teaching aplets) from the Hewlett- Packard’s Calculator web site.

•Program new aplets. See chapter 15, Programming, for further details.

Creating new aplets based on existing aplets

You can create a new aplet based on an existing aplet. To create a new aplet, save an existing aplet under a new name, then modify the aplet to add the configurations and the functionality that you want. You can send your aplet to other calculators so that other people can use it.

Information that defines an aplet is saved automatically as it is entered into the calculator.

To keep as much memory available for storage as possible, delete any aplets you no longer need.
