I got used to RPN at University. Ever since, I literally struggle to do simple math with algebraic calculators, got an HP15X emulator in my phone, does all I need
Comment on The Rise Of Fake Casio Scientific Calculators
naticus@lemmy.world 1 month agoThe best part about using an RPM calculator (I also had an HP) was that if someone asked if they could borrow it, I could tell them that if they call do 1+1 and get 2 on it, they could use it. No one ever was successful.
RPM is great though, it’s so fast if you could quickly organize the order of operations.
