Hi everyone,

I have saved a somewhat time consuming but trivial integral into a
variable 'H'. This integral takes two temperatures (T1,T2) and 4 heat
capacity variables (A,B,C,D). Is there any way I could set this up so
I could just pass a list containing values for these variables (T1 T2
A B C D) to the calculator and have it automatically Assign all the
variables?

If not, would it be simple enough to turn this into a function that
takes these variables? If it is really easy, could you post some
sample code that would get me on my way?

Thanks a bunch!

{t1 t2 a b c d} {T1 T2 A B C D} STO

Kyle,

I like using a local variable structure when a lot of variables are
involved.
Put your variables in a list on stack level 1 and then decompose the
list and store the values into local variables.
1: {1 2 3 4 5 6}
<< LIST-> @decompose list
DROP @remove number of objects in list
-> t1 t2 a b c d @store values in local variables
<< @your program goes here>>
>>

Don't forget the closing right delimeters. I put them in this web form
but they didn't
appear. I see some of the other guys use /<< instead of << when
posting. Maybe
<< means something in HTML(?) and it cuts them from the end of the
post. By
convention, the local variable names use lower case letters.

Quicker than LIST-> DROP , is EVAL.
When EVAL is used on a list, it merely strips off the list delimiters
and puts the listed objects on the stack, which is what LIST-> DROP
does..
