HP 41C, HP 42S, TI-60: Arithmetic-Geometric Mean
Arithmetic-Geometric Mean
The program AGM calculates the arithmetic-geometric mean of two positive integers x and y. As the graphic above suggests, an iterative process is used to find the AGM, computing both the arithmetic mean and geometric mean until the two means converge.
a0 = x
g0 = y
Repeat:
Arithmetic Mean: a1 = (a0 + g0)/2
Geometric Mean: g1 = √(a0 * g0)
Transfer new to old: a0 = a1, g0 = g1
Until |a1 - g1| < tolerance
You can set the tolerance as low as you want. The programs presented on this blog set tolerance at 10^(-10) (1E-10), to fit the calculator's display.

Instructions:
1. Store X in memory register 1 and Y in memory register 2.
2. Press [ RST ] [ R/S ], the value of |a1 - g1| is displayed.
3. Keep on press [ R/S ] to repeat the calculation until |a1 - g1| falls under 10^(-10).
4. Recall either memory register 1 or 2 to get the answer.
Registers needed: 1 - 4.
