Displaying Information Without Stopping; Stopping Or Interrupting A Program; Programming A Stop Or Pause (Stop, Pse) - HP 33s Owner's Manual

Displaying Information without Stopping

Normally, a program stops when it displays a variable with VIEW or displays an
equation message. You normally have to press
If you want, you can make the program continue while the information is displayed.
If the next program line — after a VIEW instruction or a viewed equation —
contains a PSE (pause) instruction, the information is displayed and execution
continues after a 1–second pause. In this case, no scrolling or keyboard input is
allowed.
The display is cleared by other display operations, and by the RND operation if
flag 7 is set (rounding to a fraction).
º ¤
Press
The VIEW and PSE lines — or the equation and PSE lines — are treated as one
operation when you execute a program one line at a time.

Stopping or Interrupting a Program

Programming a Stop or Pause (STOP, PSE)

Pressing
This will halt a running program until you resume it by pressing
keyboard. You can use STOP rather than RTN in order to end a program
without returning the program pointer to the top of memory.
Pressing
This will suspend a running program and display the contents of the
X–register for about 1 second — with the following exception. If PSE
immediately follows a VIEW instruction or an equation that's displayed (flag
10 set), the variable or equation is displayed instead — and the display
remains after the 1–second pause.
