Josh and I got checked off on our final design project for Embedded Microcontroller Lab, though it wasn’t very much fun lugging all those electronics to school. Excellent! We still have the final project report due on Tuesday, but as far as I’m concerned, we’re in the clear.

Partial fraction expansion wasn’t working on my HP49 calculator for some reason. Frustrated, I made a post to comp.sys.hp48 and reset the calculator, using Matthias Bunte’s ROM upgrade program for Linux, I always forget the steps needed to do this. I later discovered that I really didn’t have to reset my calculator at all; simply disable the Step-by-Step flag and all is well again.
