HP 42S Programming Part II: Dew Point, Ellipse Area and Eccentricity, Easy Transverse

HP 42S Programming Part II:  Dew Point, Ellipse Area and Eccentricity, Easy Transverse

Click here for Part I:  Matrix Column Sum, GCD, Error Function

(I plan to post Part III next week.)

As mentioned in Part I, you can download an emulator for the HP 42S, Free42 here: http://thomasokken.com/free42/ .  The emulator is for many operating systems including Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android.

 HP 42S:  Area and Eccentricity of an Ellipse

The program ELLIPSE calculates the area and eccentricity of an ellipse. 

Formulas:
Assume a>b, where a and b represent the lengths of semi-diameters, respectively
Area:  A = π*a*b
Eccentricity:  ϵ = √(1 – (b/a)^2)

HP 42S Easy Transverse

Calculates the new point knowing the original coordinates, direction, and angle of travel.  The angle 0° comes from due east and rotates counterclockwise.  The program sets the HP 42S to degrees mode.  We make use of the Programmable Menu.
