New to the site and glad to be here....I am not as skilled as all of you and i guess thats why im here for some help. I have just bought a hp prime and am having trouble in programming like im used to on the prizm or a ti 86. Here is an example program below that im used to doing which the prime does not offer lbl's or goto commands....so if someone can give me an example on how to write this on the prime would be greatly appreciated.... 'ProgramMode:RUN
"REVCHORD OR REGCHORD OR DIAMETER UNKNOWN?"
"(REV=0)(REG=1) (DIA.UNKNOWN=2)"?->Y
ClrText
Y=0=>Goto 0
Y=1=>Goto 1
Y=2=>Goto 2
Lbl 0
ClrText
"CHORD="?->A
"RADIUS="?->R
cos^-1 ((R^<2>+R^<2>-A^<2>)/(2(R*R)))->P
"DEGREE OF CHORD IS"
PDispsAns>DMSDispsClrText
Stop
Lbl 1
"NUMBER OF HOLES"?->H
"BOLT CIRCLE DIA"?->D
D*sin ((360/H)/2)->S
ClrText
"LENGTH OF CHORD"
SDispsAns>DMSDispsClrText
Stop
Lbl 2
"KNOWN CHORD"?->C
"NUMBER OF HOLES"?->N
C/sin ((360/N)/2)->D
"DIAMETER IS"
D
The Prime supports local functions within programs, so you can call functions based on the input.

I thank you for the reply but if you could give me an example to look at that would be great .....like i said im not to good with al the lingo...but can program like i posted above
Here's an example of a Prime program to do what you're doing with gotos (not actually your program):


Code:
CaseA()
BEGIN
PRINT("A");
END;

CaseB()
BEGIN
PRINT("B");
END;

CaseC()
BEGIN
PRINT("C");
END;

EXPORT Testing123()
BEGIN
LOCAL inp;
INPUT(inp, "1, 2, or 3");
CASE
IF inp = 1 THEN CaseA(); END
IF inp = 2 THEN CaseB(); END
IF inp = 3 THEN CaseC(); END
DEFAULT PRINT("None");
END;
END;
