Introduction
About This Handbook
This HP 12C Platinum Solutions Handbook has been designed to supplement the HP 12C
Platinum Owner's Handbook by providing a variety of applications in the financial area.
Programs and/or step-by-step keystroke procedures with corresponding examples in each
specific topic are explained. We hope that this book will serve as a reference guide to
many of your problems and will show you how to redesign our examples to fit your
specific needs.
This book expands the original HP-12C Solutions handbook with additional solutions in
algebraic mode. It contains the same RPN program keystrokes and RPN step-by-step
procedure keystrokes, in columns headed “12c platinum / 12C RPN Keystrokes”. The
alternative algebraic keystrokes are tablulated under “12c platinum ALG Keystrokes”. In
program listings the “Display” columns show the keycodes as seen on the HP 12C
Platinum.
Appendix A also contains algebraic listings for all the RPN programs given in Part III of
the HP 12C Platinum Owner’s Handbook.
Presentation of Algebraic and RPN
The conventions used to differentiate between RPN and ALG mode are:
1.
Program Listings
Complete and separate listings are given for all programs. They appear side by side
in two columns with RPN on the left and Algebraic on the right.
2.
Step-by-Step Keystroke Procedures
As for programs separate columns are used, with the RPN keystrokes on the left
and the Algebraic keystrokes on the right.
3.
Program Instructions
Program instruction steps are generally the same for both modes. Any differences
are shown by clearly framing alternative steps and annotating the step or steps in
the first frame as RPN, and those in the second as ALG.
4.
Text
Occasionally there are small differences which need to be indicated in the text
