To our surprise we sold our initial stock of these Hewlett Packard calculators in one week. But, a further consignment arrives on Tuesday June 2, and once again these remarkable machines will be available to students. In view of the demand you are advised to order now, at your only retail outlet: — SWEET and MAXWELL'S UNIVERSITY BOOK CENTRE 15MOUN 15 MOUNT ST. PH. 48-911 The Hewlett Packard 45 is a bigger machine. It has 48 pre-programmed functions and operations. It enjoys all the advantages of the H.P.21 and offers in addition to the four register operational stack, a 'last x' register, 9 addressable memories, three selectable angular modes, factorial computation, percentage and percentage difference. These are also only indications of the machines capabilities, so see one at Sweet and Maxwell's University Book Centre straight away. The Hewlett Packard 21 has 32 pre-programmed functions and operations including rectangular/polar conversion, register arithmetic and common log evaluation. But apart from these capabilities, and the basic data manipulations (1/x, yx, x, pi.), the H.P.21 features the R.P.N. Logic System which allows you to; Evaluate ANY expression without copying parentheses, worrying about hierarchies, or initial restructuring. Recover from errors. You can backtrack when you err, because the HP. 21 performs all operations sequentially. Re-use numbers without re-entering them. This is the beginning, no more. Get down to Sweet and Maxwell's and get to grips with a Hewlett Packard 21. There's a display model there now. Note: The Government's budget (if that's an apt description) has ripped on an additional sales tax which has inevitably led to a price increase on these machines. However at $155 (H.P.21) and $299 (H.P.45) these calculators with their 15 month guarantee are still amazing and still indispensible. SWEET & MAXWELLS UNIVERSITY BOOK CENTRE 15 MOUNT ST Ph. 48-911
