Extending aplets 16-1

Extending aplets

Aplets are the application environments where you explore

different classes of mathematical operations.

You can extend the capability of the HP 39G/40G in the

following ways:

• Create new aplets, based on existing aplets, with specific

configurations such as angle measure, graphical or

tabular settings, and annotations.

• Transmit aplets between HP 39G calculators via an infra

red link.

• Download e-lessons (teaching aplets) from the Hewlett-

Packard’s Calculator web site.

• Program new aplets. See chapter 15, Programming, for

further details.

Creating new aplets based on existing

aplets

You can create a new aplet based on an existing aplet. To

create a new aplet, save an existing aplet under a new name,

then modify the aplet to add the configurations and the

functionality that you want. You can send your aplet to other

calculators so that other people can use it.

Information that defines an aplet is saved automatically as it

is entered into the calculator.

To keep as much memory available for storage as possible,

delete any aplets you no longer need.
