A good workman (the phrase is "craftsman", moron) doesn't use shit tools. Of course, you wouldn't know anything about that.
You are at the top of the bad list, that's for sure, old hag.

Oh, I see now. That should work if the tape and glue are thin enough. I'll dig through the 3M catalog when I have time. Thanks.

Do you have anything to say about scientific calculators? Do you even have a use for a scientific calculator?

You really are an old hag. Alzheimer's must be a bitch.
You already tied yourself in knots but your brain is gone so don't see it.

-- OK, have it your way. The point is that a good craftsman, through the use of ingenuity, can overcome the limitations of the [shit] tools given to him. That leaves you whining about why haven't tools been crafted to allow you to release your innate genius. The answer is, obviously, they have been. John Fields

The problem is that RPN calculators are clearly superior to algebraic ones, but nobody makes RPNs any more, except for the dreadful HP35S.
There are a bunch of smartphone apps that simulate an RPN calculator, so all is not lost.

I've never seen one. I do a lot of fractional math in decimal and hex, and I've never seen a handheld calc that does non-integer hex. So I'm always shuttling between decimal and hex, dividing and multiplying by
2^16 or 2^32, and piecing things together. Even simple 2's complement stuff is annoying on most calcs.PC-based calculators are sometimes better.

Man, they sure have come a long way.

Someone here recommended it, can't recall who.
I was recently doing a DDS design, with a 64 bit integer + 64 bit fractional binary phase accumulator. TTcalc sure helped.

You really are a stupid shit. The only one I've used that did a decent job of non-base10 was a Palm app. ...and of course it was algebraic.

Doesn't do non-integer binary/hex arithmetic, though. Xcaliber is another decent PC app. I prefer my calculator on the side, though. My PC desktop is always full of other stuff - several layers deep.

Typical sophomoric comment from the old hag.
Idiot. RPN calculators existed for Palm. There is no reason they couldn't do a decent job of non-base10 arithmetic.
Wrong. Doesn't do it.
