[comp.sys.handhelds] Stat plot

jn163051@longs.LANCE.ColoState.Edu (Joel Nevison) (03/20/90)

Here is a small program I made to plot the value of my stock portfolio.
I made this because the statistics plot function would not allow me
to plot a matrix of one column.   If anyone knows a better way to get
around this I would appreciate being advised.
I calculate the value of my portfolio every week and store it in a
n*1 statistics matrix &DAT (where & is the sigma symbol) this program
scales the plot parameters and plots the matrix data.

&plot [68CF]         (& is the sigma symbol)
<< 1 MIN& R->C N& MAX& R->C X 1 (0,0) 5 ->LIST 'PPAR' STO
     << &DAT X GET >>
     STEQ CLLCD DRAW
>>
This program must be executed from a directory that contains a 
variable &DAT whis consists of an n*1 matrix.

I don't have a 48sx yet, I plan on keeping my 28s when I do.
I think there will be many instances where programs written for the
48 will be easily transferrable to the 28 with minor changes, and
vice versa.   Since I only have occasional access to a pc or mac
I plan on using the 28 for program entry and transferring to the 48.
I hope this will be easier than using the multiple shift keys on
the 48.   Question.... How easy is it to get used to the locations of
the unlabeled shift key locations on the 48?   It seems like the quick 
reference guide would be the apropriate place to show these non labeled 
key functions.

Anyone else have thoughts/comments on this subject?
