I am quite interested, since Free42 is so well done! I believe that Thomas has built in the unlimited stack function to both free42 and plus42, And with that, there is a change in how enter works (more like RPL) which I like to see, because it seems more intuitive. I don't really like to see the number copied up to the y register when you press enter. They're only a few cases where it might save one keystroke but it just doesn't look right to enter a number and then see it there twice. However one thing that would help is if the numbers could be shown on the right hand side (when in Nstack mode) like they are on the 48S. The main reason I would like to see this is that the NSTACK his numbered 1:, 2:, 3:, etc., and I don't like having those numbers so close to the data I'm reading from the screen. So I'm hoping Thomas can modify it to make the data right aligned while keeping the stack labels at the left for this mode. (It would be fine for the rotating stack mode as well but there's less confusion because the stack is labeled XYZT.)
I should also give a shout for Thomas Okken, whose dedication and tireless enthusiasm gave us his previous masterpiece: Free42 -WHICH IS STILL GETTING BETTER! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This looks like it could be the super-calculator I've been looking for for 40 years! All the best parts of HP's various approaches rolled into one calculator. Adding Units, Conversions, dynamic stack, algebraic equations, directories, plotting, the equation solver app all in one place - amazing. THANK YOU THOMAS!
Despite my poor hearing and extreme difficulty with various accents, I will watch this over and over to try to get important words missed first time around because I like your calm delivery and logical approach. Thanks. Subscribed.
Anthony really did an outstanding job on this video. I have enjoyed watching all of his videos but I learned a number of things in this one that I had somehow missed even after playing with Plus42 for months. Thanks Anthony!
Could you, at your leisure cover the print functions of the 42S emulators. I find the PRUSR and PRALL interesting. Maybe you could show some of the things that the virtual tape can do such as copying the output to anywhere you want as text.
@Calculator Culture Yes, the tape is pretty slick. Try pressing the copy button and paste the results into a text file. The print modes are also quite interesting. I also copied a cell selection from a spreadsheet, and pasted it into the X register, and a matrix showed up.
If swiss micros ever makes a Plus42 or an RPL calculator (DM48,49,50, etc) I will immediately buy it at any reasonable price. He could even use the same hardware as the DM42 and nix the extra row of buttons. I have a DM42 and I love it, but there just isn't any place to go from there. DM32, DM 41, etc are all downgrades, imo.
Whats the difference between the 48G and the 48SX? A couple years ago I was looking to get an RPN and the SX was what was available, but I can't find much about 48s on CZcams

Been using Free42 since it came out. I even bought a real HP-42S for my collection. Thomas Okken has a place in history for this project!

What a marvellous pocket calculator channel you have ! I just stumbled over it and surely immediately subscribed. Thank you so much.
Thanks for the kind words.

Thanks for the kind words Steve.
As a long-time hp calculator user, the Plus42 project makes me very happy.
great to see your review up so quickly, i only discoered this great app yesterday.
Thank you for the excellent review. I went ahead and purchased the app for my iPhone. I'm very impressed with the quality and functionality it offers.
I just found my 42s that I used in grade school 🏫 😊👍
Great review, thanks!
Why is the 42s remembered so fondly? People seem to wax poetic about it?
Yeah I have a separate video on the 42S you might want to check out

Please correct the plus42 link in the description
Thanks, done.

Yeah i should cover printing more. It's not something I do a lot personally, but i'll try to remember for future videos.

I would like to see more examples using this calculator
Logan West did a series of videos about the HP 42S here czcams.com/play/PLLSm2FQeC1QD8jUhHMom9b7D98mUT0ko5.html
@@CalculatorCulture wow amazing! Just what I was looking for .thankyou. Anthony is incredible.
Whats the difference between the 48G and the 48SX?
A couple years ago I was looking to get an RPN and the SX was what was available, but I can't find much about 48s on CZcams
There is a summary of differences here. www.hpcalc.org/hp48/docs/faq/48faq-3.html
How do I get to the Utilities menu?
That was just a directory I created in my app for demo purposes.
can you build up the so called "algebraics" using the stack?
Not currently.

You DM42 display looks like it's backlit. Is it?
It does look like it, but the DM42 doesnt have a backlight - it's just reflecting the light from the window.
@@CalculatorCulture Thank you. I thought it was a new feature (I have an early one) or some hack I could do to mine.
