DECM 

Takes 

x

 as a date in the format selected and re-

turns the name of the day in the dot matrix and a 
corresponding  integer  in  the  numeric  display 
(Monday = 1, Sunday = 7).

Works  like  on 

HP-16C

,  but  with  the  parameter 

following the command instead of taken from 

X

Reducing  the  word  size  truncates  the  values  in 
the  stack  registers  employed,  including 

L

WSIZE 0 sets the word size to maximum, i.e. 64 
bits.
