PSPX48: a HP48 Calculator emulator v1.0

[zx-81]

Are we supposed to use Kxploit on this to make it compatible with 1.5? I tried putting the folder in my Psp Game folder, but when I tried running it gave me a "This game could not be run" error

Anyone have any luck running this on 1.5?

With the help of WebCousin, we've updated the zip file and it now contains a 1.5 fw directory and a 2.0 fw directory

ah thanks for changing the keys! Now it's much more comforable =)

Thanks to you

Couple questions before I get it (if the calc doesn't support these I won't bother)...

1. How does this compare to TI-83/84? 89?

Much more better

2. Does it support "pretty print" (output can handle unique characters like i and pi, along with actually written out fractions instead of decimals)?[/b]

Yes, it performs symbolic computation ... You can write your equations using formulae with variables etc ...

3. Does it have cosine, sine, tangent, arcsine... and all that jazz?
4. Will it graph for me?
5. Does it work with radians?

Yes

... Also when i then press Home to exit it hangs at please wait a moment.

The home button still doesn't work (even with the new version), but can exit PSPX48 a simple way: press L1 + R1 + Start simultaneously, few seconds and it will exit properly.

You can now also, save the RAM file by pressing SELECT + Start

Sweet!!! Thanks so much!!! This is by far one of the coolest homebrew things I have seen on the PSP . I've been waiting for this forever, had the ugly pspCalc all this while, which really didnt help at all. Now if only there was some tutorial on how to get this to do everything I want it to

Cheers

PS- The ROM file is missing in the updated zip file. Dunno if you intended for it to be that way

PPS- Help!! I feel quite retarded but I cant figure out the controls for the life of me! Could someone pls explain how I could do a simple 2+3=5 calculation? with the new control scheme. Would really appreciate it.

Yes, the rom can be found easily on hpcal.org web site :

Move the highligted button to the HP48 key 2, then press the PSP UP key, then the PSP DOWN Key. Do the same to enter 3. To perform the addition move the highlighted button to the + Key then PSP UP and you've got your result

Edit: Here is the complete manual of the HP48 calculator : user guide

@ ZX-81
Sorry i left yesterday in such a hurry, my bro wanted to sleep and we share a room...

@ ZX-81 again,
My teacher thought it was awesome only he didnt knew how to handle the HP48 so i still can't do much with it , yesterday you were beginning about a TI emulator, and after ive seen the TI graph calc of my teacher and... it looks a bit more understandable and frankly i don't want to read the 612 pages of the guide. So if it wont be to much trouble i would also appreciate a TI emulator

[zx-81]

@syldaril : thx

@SubZero: don't worry about yesterday. For a Texas Instrument emulator, one can try to port Xtiger (TI emulator for linux), but for the moment i can't find the source code of this very old tool (dead link etc ...).

Thank you zx-81!!! this is one of the most finest original programmes ive seen in a very long time! kudos!

works flawlessly on 1.50

ive used Texas Instruments back in the day, but now i want to read the HP manual, just for kicks! even though im not in school anymore. lol

Cheers!
