Silver Paint Keys Those eight silver paint keys have their specific pressure points marked in blue position in the illustration below. To use those keys, make sure to press down the corresponding position for the desired function. Backspacing and Clearing One of the first things you need to know is how to clear: how to correct numbers, clear the display, or start over.
Page 21
Keys for Clearing Description Backspace. Keyboard–entry mode: Erases the character immediately to the left of "_" (the digit–entry cursor) or backs out of the current menu. (Menus are described in "Using Menus" on page 1–7.) If the number is completed (no cursor), clears the entire number.

RPN and ALG Keys The calculator can be set to perform arithmetic operations in either RPN (Reverse Polish Notation) or ALG (Algebraic) mode. In Reverse Polish Notation (RPN) mode, the intermediate results of calculations are stored automatically; hence, you do not have to use parentheses. In algebraic (ALG) mode, you perform addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division in the traditional way.
The Display and Annunciators First Line Second Line Annunciators The display comprises two lines and annunciators. The first line can display up to 255 characters. Entries with more than 14 characters will scroll to the left. However, if entries are more than 255 characters, the characters from the 256th onward are replaced with an ellipsis ( ...

Number of Decimal Places All numbers are stored with 12–digit precision, but you can select the number of Þ decimal places to be displayed by pressing (the display menu). During some complicated internal calculations, the calculator uses 15–digit precision for intermediate results.
Engineering Format ({ }) ENG format displays a number in a manner similar to scientific notation, except that the exponent is a multiple of three (there can be up to three digits before the " " or " " radix mark). This format is most useful for scientific and engineering calculations that use units specified in multiples of 10 (such as micro–, milli–, and kilo–units.)
Î release Fractions The HP 33s allows you to type in and display fractions, and to perform math operations on them. Fractions are real numbers of the form a b/c where a, b, and c are integers; 0 c; and the denominator (c) must be in the range 2 through 4095.

Calculator Memory The HP 33s has 31KB of memory in which you can store any combination of data (variables, equations, or program lines). Checking Available Memory ¹ u Pressing displays the following menu: Where is the number of bytes of memory available.
What the Stack Is Automatic storage of intermediate results is the reason that the HP 33s easily processes complex calculations, and does so without parentheses. The key to automatic storage is the automatic, RPN memory stack.
0.0000 "Oldest" number 0.0000 Displayed 0.0000 0.0000 Displayed The most "recent" number is in the X–register: this is the number you see in the second line of the display. In programming, the stack is used to perform calculations, to temporarily store intermediate results, to pass stored data (variables) among programs and subroutines, to accept input, and to deliver output.
Reviewing the Stack (Roll Down) < (roll down) key lets you review the entire contents of the stack by "rolling" the contents downward, one register at a time. You can see each number when it enters the X–register. Ï Ï Ï...
Exchanging the X– and Y–Registers in the Stack Another key that manipulates the stack contents is (x exchange y). This key swaps the contents of the X– and Y–registers without affecting the rest of the stack. Pressing twice restores the original order of the X– and Y–register contents. function is used primarily to swap the order of numbers in a calculation.
3. The stack drops. Notice that when the stack lifts, it replaces the contents of the T– (top) register with the contents of the Z–register, and that the former contents of the T–register are lost. You can see, therefore, that the stack's memory is limited to four numbers.
Using a Number Twice in a Row Ï You can use the replicating feature of to other advantages. To add a Ï Ù number to itself, press Filling the stack with a constant Ï The replicating effect of together with the replicating effect of stack drop (from T into Z) allows you to fill the stack with a numeric constant for calculations.
During program entry, deletes the currently–displayed program line and Å cancels program entry. During digit entry, backspaces over the displayed number. Å If the display shows a labeled number (such as ), pressing cancels that display and shows the X–register. When viewing an equation, displays the cursor at the end the equation to allow for editing.
2. Reusing a number in a calculation. See appendix B for a comprehensive list of the functions that save x in the LAST X register. Correcting Mistakes with LAST X Wrong One–Number Function ¹ Í If you execute the wrong one–number function, use to retrieve the Å...

(12 + 3) ... (12 + 3) = 1 5 … then you would multiply the intermediate result by 7: (15) 7 = 105 Solve the problem in the same way on the HP 33s, starting inside the parentheses: Keys: Display: Description: Ï...
Page 52
(5 + 6). Finally, you would multiply the two intermediate results to get the answer. Work through the problem the same way with the HP 33s, except that you don't have to write down intermediate answers—the calculator remembers them for you.
This method takes one additional keystroke. Notice that the first intermediate result is still the innermost parentheses (7 3). The advantage to working a problem left–to–right is that you don't have to use to reposition operands for à ¯ nomcommutaiive functions ( However, the first method (starting with the innermost parentheses) is often preferred because: It takes fewer keystrokes.
Storing Data into Variables The HP 33s has 31KB of user memory: memory that you can use to store numbers, equations, and program lines. Numbers are stored in locations called variables, each named with a letter from A through Z. (You can choose the letter to remind you of what is stored there, such as B for bank balance and C for the speed of light.)
Each white letter is associated with a key and a unique variable. The letter keys are automatically active when needed. (The A..Z annunciator in the display confirms this.) Note that the variables, X, Y, Z and T are different storage locations from the X–register, Y–register, Z–register, and T–register in the stack.
Viewing a Variable without Recalling It º È function shows you the contents of a variable without putting that number in the X–register. The display is labeled for the variable, such as: º È is most often used in programming, but it is useful anytime you want to view a variable's value without affecting the contents of t he stack.
Clearing Variables Variables' values are retained by Continuous Memory until you replace them or clear them. Clearing a variable stores a zero there; a value of zero takes no memory. To clear a single variable: Store zero in it: Press 0 variable.

º v Exchanges contents of the X–register and variable A. º v Exchanges contents of the X–register and variable A. The Variable "i" Ë There is a 27th variable that you can access directly — the variable i. The is labeled "i", and it means i whenever the A..Z annunciator is on.
Real–Number Functions This chapter covers most of the calculator's functions that perform computations on real numbers, including some numeric functions used in programs (such as ABS, the absolute–value function): Exponential and logarithmic functions. Quotient and Remainder of Divisions. Power functions. ( Trigonometric functions.

The RANDOM function uses a seed to generate a random number. Each random number generated becomes the seed for the next random number. Therefore, a sequence of random numbers can be repeated by starting with the same seed. You can store a new seed with the SEED function. If memory is cleared, the seed is reset to zero.

Fractions "Fractions" in chapter 1 introduces the basics about entering, displaying, and calculating with fractions: Ë To enter a fraction, press twice — after the integer part, and between the Ë Ë numerator and denominator. To enter 2 , press 2 8.
If you didn't get the same results as the example, you may have accidentally changed how fractions are displayed. (See "Changing the Fraction Display" later in this chapter.) The next topic includes more examples of valid and invalid input fractions. You can type fractions only if the number base is 10 —...

You can select one of three fraction formats. The next few topics show how to change the fraction display. Setting the Maximum Denominator For any fraction, the denominator is selected based on a value stored in the calculator. If you think of fractions as a b/c , then /c corresponds to the value that controls the denominator.

Fractions in Programs When you're typing a program, you can type a number as a fraction — but it's converted to its decimal value. All numeric values in a program are shown as decimal values — Fraction–display mode is ignored. When you're running a program, displayed values are shown using Fraction–display mode if it's active.
Entering and Evaluating Equations How You Can Use Equations You can use equations on the HP 33s in several ways: For specifying an equation to evaluate (this chapter). For specifying an equation to solve for unknown values (chapter 7). For specifying a function to integrate (chapter 8).

Å Leaves Equation mode. Types of Equations The HP 33s works with three types of equations: Equalities. The equation contains an "=", and the left side contains more than just a single variable. For example, x is an equality.
Page 102
"=" in an equation essentially treated as " – ". The value is a measure of how well the equation balances. Ï The HP 33s has two keys for evaluating equations: . Their actions differ only in how they evaluate assignment equations: returns the value of the equation, regardless of the type of equation.

Example: Solving the Ideal Gas Law Equation. The Ideal Gas Law describes the relationship between pressure, volume, temperature, and the amount (moles) of an ideal gas: V = N where P is pressure (in atmospheres or N/m ), V is volume (in liters), N is the number of moles of gas, R is the universal gas constant (0.0821 liter–atm/mole–K or 8.314 J/mole–K), and T is temperature (Kelvins: K=°C + 273.1).
¥ Stores 297.1 in T ; solves for P in atmospheres. A 5–liter flask contains nitrogen gas. The pressure is 0.05 atmospheres when the temperature is 18°C. Calculate the density of the gas ( N 28/ V , where 28 is the molecular weight of nitrogen).
When SOLVE evaluates an equation, it does it the same way does — any "=" in the equation is treated as a " – ". For example, the Ideal Gas Law equation is evaluated as P V – ( N T ).
Interrupting a SOLVE Calculation Å ¥ To halt a calculation, press . The current best estimate of the root is in º È the unknown variable; use to view it without disturbing the stack. Choosing Initial Guesses for SOLVE The two initial guesses come from: The number currently stored in the unknown variable.
Page 118
If an equation does not allow certain values for the unknown, guesses can prevent these values from occurring. For example, y = t + log x results in an error if x 0 (message ). In the following example, the equation has more than one root, but guesses help find the desired root.

RPN mode ALG mode This very simple program assumes that the value for the radius is in the X– register (the display) when the program starts to run. It computes the area and leaves it in the X–register.
Designing a Program The following topics show what instructions you can put in a program. What you put in a program affects how it appears when you view it and how it works when you run it. Selecting a Mode Programs created and saved in RPN mode can only be edited and executed in RPN mode, and programs or steps created and saved in ALG mode can only be edited and executed in ALG mode.
When a program finishes running, the last RTN instruction returns the program pointer to , the top of program memory. Using RPN, ALG and Equations in Programs You can calculate in programs the same ways you calculate on the keyboard: Using RPN operations (which work with the stack, as explained in chapter 2).
For output, you can display a variable with the VIEW instruction, you can display a message derived from an equation, or you can leave unmarked values on the stack. These are covered later in this chapter under "Entering and Displaying Data." Entering a Program ¹...

Function Names in Programs The name of a function that is used in a program line is not necessarily the same as the function's name on its key, in its menu, or in an equation. The name that is used in a program is usually a fuller abbreviation than that which can fit on a key or in a menu.

Entering and Displaying Data The calculator's variables are used to store data input, intermediate results, and final results. (Variables, as explained in chapter 3, are identified by a letter from A through Z or i , but the variable names have nothing to do with program labels.) In a program, you can get data in these ways: From an INPUT instruction, which prompts for the value of a variable.

¥ Press (run/stop) to resume the program. The value you keyed in then writes over the contents of the X–register and is stored in the given variable.

Programming Techniques Chapter 12 covered the basics of programming. This chapter explores more sophisticated but useful techniques: Using subroutines to simplify programs by separating and labeling portions of the program that are dedicated to particular tasks. The use of subroutines also shortens a program that must perform a series of steps more than once.
Calling Subroutines (XEQ, RTN) A subroutine is a routine that is called from (executed by) another routine and returns to that same routine when the subroutine is finished. The subroutine must start with a LBL and end with a RTN. A subroutine is itself a routine, and it can call other subroutines.
Nested Subroutines A subroutine can call another subroutine, and that subroutine can call yet another subroutine. This "nesting" of subroutines — the calling of a subroutine within another subroutine — is limited to a stack of subroutines seven levels deep (not counting the topmost program level).
A Programmed GTO Instruction ¹ r The GTO label instruction (press label ) transfers the execution of a running program to the program line containing that label, wherever it may be. The program continues running from the new location, and never automatically returns to its point of origination, so GTO is not used for subroutines.
¹ r Ë Ë To : ¹ r Ë To a line number: label nnnn ( nnnn < 10000). For example, ¹ r Ë A0005. ¹ r To a label: label —but only if program entry is not active (no ¹...

Meanings of Flags The HP 33s has 12 flags, numbered 0 through 11. All flags can be set, cleared, and tested from the keyboard or by a program instruction. The default state of all 12 flags is clear .
Page 193
Flags 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 have no preassigned meanings. That is, their states will mean whatever you define them to mean in a given program. (See the example below.) Flag 5, when set, will interrupt a program when an overflow occurs within â...
Page 194
Flag 10 controls program execution of equations: When flag 10 is clear (the default state), equations in running programs are evaluated and the result put on the stack. When flag 10 is set, equations in running programs are displayed as messages, causing them to behave like a VIEW statement: 1.
Page 195
Annunciators for Set Flags Flags 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 have annunciators in the display that turn on when the corresponding flag is set. The presence or absence of 0 , 1 , 2 , 3 or 4 lets you know at any time whether any of these five flags is set or not.
Page 196
Example: Using Flags. The "Curve Fitting" program in chapter 16 uses flags 0 and 1 to determine whether to take the natural logarithm of the X– and Y–inputs: Lines S0003 and S0004 clear both of these flags so that lines W0007 and W0011 (in the input loop routine) do not take the natural logarithms of the X–...

Indirectly Addressing Variables and Labels Indirect addressing is a technique used in advanced programming to specify a variable or label without specifying beforehand exactly which one . This is determined when the program runs, so it depends on the intermediate results (or input) of the program.

More about Solving This appendix provides information about the SOLVE operation beyond that given in chapter 7. How SOLVE Finds a Root SOLVE first attempts to solve the equation directly for the unknown variable. If the attempt fails, SOLVE changes to an iterative(repetitive) procedure. The iterative operation is to execute repetitively the specified equation.
Page 326
f (x) f (x) f (x) f (x) Function Whose Roots Can Be Found In most situations, the calculated root is an accurate estimate of the theoretical, infinitely precise root of the equation. An "ideal" solution is one for which f(x) = 0. However, a very small non–zero value for f(x) is often acceptable because it might result from approximating numbers with limited (12–digit) precision.
Interpreting Results The SOLVE operation will produce a solution under either of the following conditions: If it finds an estimate for which f(x) equals zero. (See figure a, below.) If it finds an estimate where f(x) is not equal to zero, but the calculated root is a 12–digit number adjacent to the place where the function's graph crosses the x –axis (see figure b, below).

Underflow Underflow occurs when the magnitude of a number is smaller than the calculator can represent, so it substitutes zero. This can affect SOLVE results. For example, consider the equation whose root is infinite in value. Because of underflow, SOLVE returns a very large value as a root.
More about Integration This appendix provides information about integration beyond that given in chapter How the Integral Is Evaluated ∫ The algorithm used by the integration operation, , calculates the integral of a function f(x) by computing a weighted average of the function's values at many values of x (known as sample points) within the interval of integration.
Conditions That Could Cause Incorrect Results Although the integration algorithm in the HP 33s is one of the best available, in certain situations it — like all other algorithms for numerical integration — might give you an incorrect answer. The possibility of this occurring is extremely remote .
Page 341
f (x) With this number of sample points, the algorithm will calculate the same approximation for the integral of any of the functions shown. The actual integrals of the functions shown with solid blue and black lines are about the same, so the approximation will be fairly accurate if f(x) is one of these functions.
Page 342
Keys: Display: Description: º d Select equation mode. ¸ # Enter the equation. Ã h º | End of the equation. Ï º Î Checksum and length. Å Cancels Equation mode. Set the display format to SCI 3, specify the lower and upper limits of integration as zero and 100 , than start the integration.
Page 343
f (x) The graph is a spike very close to the origin. Because no sample point happened to discover the spike, the algorithm assumed that f(x) was identically equal to zero throughout the interval of integration. Even if you increased the number of sample points by calculating the integral in SCI 11 or ALL format, none of the additional sample points would discover the spike when this particular function is integrated over this particular interval.
Page 344
Note that the rapidity of variation in the function (or its low–order derivatives) must be determined with respect to the width of the interval of integration. With a given number of sample points, a function f(x) that has three fluctuations can be better characterized by its samples when these variations are spread out over most of the interval of integration than if they are confined to only a small fraction of the interval.
In many cases you will be familiar enough with the function you want to integrate that you will know whether the function has any quick wiggles relative to the interval of integration. If you're not familiar with the function, and you suspect that it may cause problems, you can quickly plot a few points by evaluating the function using the equation or program you wrote for that purpose.
Page 346
Uncertainty of approximation. This is the correct answer, but it took a very long time. To understand why, compare the graph of the function between x = 0 and x = 10 , which looks about the same as that shown in the previous example, with the graph of the function between x = 0 and x = 10: f (x) You can see that this function is "interesting"...
Page 347
Because the calculation time depends on how soon a certain density of sample points is achieved in the region where the function is interesting, the calculation of the integral of any function will be prolonged if the interval of integration includes mostly regions where the function is not interesting.

For Å significant conditions, the message remains until you clear it. Pressing clears the message; pressing any other key clears the message and executes that key's function.
