Origin posted:The only other acceptable calculators are the 35s and the 12c.  Loved this piece of hardware; tetris, chatting with students over the IR, some math. Amazing build quality on this thing - survived leaky batteries, being frozen in a puddle and university, and the ravages of time. There is a cool free/no ads emulator for Android to called droid48sx. If it only had the clicky button noise, it would be perfect.

I would love to see what a calculator built from the ground up with modern hardware would look like. It's a shame that the ubiquitous factorial example program is like 12 lines of BASIC instead of: "n -> [1..n] |> fold 1 *" or whatever because calculators can't support modern languages.

Btw if you want RPN on the fx-991ex all you have to do is put the battery in backwards and only expose the solar cell to the light of tallow candles.

its pretty funny that devices that run on maths can't be used to input/output maths very efficiently
