HP-65 is a fully programmable pocket calculator. Use it withpre-recorded magnetic program cards from HP. Or, write your own programs andstore them on magnetic cards for future use, anytime.

HP-65 Fully Programmable Pocket Calculator

Hewlett-Packard’s most advanced pocket calculator is theHP-65. a fully programmable instrument which features a built-in magnetic cardreader/writer, a 100-step program memory, 51 pre-programmed functions andoperations and nine addressable data memory registers. These capabilities allowthe HP-65 to be used in three ways:

1. With pre-recorded program cards from Hewlett-Packard. The HP-65 can be used by anyone to solve complex problems in such fields aselectrical, chemical and mechanical engineering: statistics; mathematics. Finance:Medicine: Navigation: Aviation, and Surveying. Simply select the appropriatepre-recorded program card and pass it through the HP-65 built-in card reader.Then, key in your known data and start the program running as described in theeasy-to-follow instructions provided with each program. A current catalog ofHP-65 Application Pacs, each of which contains up to 40 pre-recorded programs,can be obtained from your nearest HP pocket calculator dealer or via theattached reply card.

2. As a user-programmed calculator, the HP-65 lets you writeprograms of up to 100 steps and record them on blank magnetic cards (20supplied) for future use anywhere. anytime. Depending on your needs, a programcan be simple or complex. It can incorporate any of the pre-programmedfunctions and operations described below, plus: conditional branches based onlogic comparisons, loops and one-level subroutines. Five user-definable keyslet you execute different segments of your program directly from the keyboard.As important, the HP-65 gives you full editing capability for fast, convenientprogram modification or correction.

3. Even as a keyboard operated calculator, the HP-65 givesyou 51 pre-programmed functions and operations, nine addressable memory registerswith full register arithmetic, and Hewlett-Packard’s efficient RPN logic systemwith four-register operational stack.
