HP 42S/Free 42S/DM42: Dynamic Growing Lists
Introduction
This blog entry will show how to create dynamic matrices that grow as additional entries are necessary.
DIM: (Syntax: rows, cols, DIM) Sets the initial dimensions of the matrix.
INDEX: Sets the index pointer to I = 1 and J = 1.
GROW: Sets the HP 42S to grow mode. This allows the matrix to build additional rows and columns by adding new elements.
J+: Does one of two things in Grow Mode. It either moves the pointer to the next column or creates a new row. For a matrix with only 1 column as its initial dimension, J+ creates a new row automatically.
Matrix: 1 to N
The first program, nLIST generates a one column matrix from 1 to n.
LBL 00: Main Loop
LBL 01: Adds another row
LBL 02: End of program and shows the resulting matrix, MATD in edit mode
R01: counter variable counting from n (in X stack) to 1

Press the soft keys ( ↑ ) and ( ↓ ) to scroll throw the matrix. Press [EXIT] to exit the matrix. The matrix MATD is stored as a stack element.
Simulating HP Prime's idivis Command
The program IDIVIS simulates the IDIVIS command on the HP Prime. IDIVIS lists all the divisors of an integer ( n ).
LBL 00: Main Loop - tests for divisors
LBL 01: Adds any divisors and creates another row
LBL 02: Decreases the counter variable
LBL 03: Trims the excessive row by the DELR (delete row) command, ends the program and shows the resulting matrix, MATD in edit mode
R00: n
R01: counter variable counting from n (in X stack) to 1. The program stops when R01 reaches 0 (it is skipped thanks to the DSE command).
R02 = R00/R01
