Best calculator replacement ...

[Jose]

So this is probably sound like a lame question but what calculator replacements out there are worth it, or is there a king of them all...

:pint:

Narrowed it down to PSCalc and Mathador on Aminet. Gonna give Mathador a try at the moment...

For a proper RPN scientific calculator you cannot beat the Hewlett Packard 11C.

If you do not have OS4 there is an older version too for OS3.

So many choices, AInc must be envy:)
The problem with these things is that one gets used to them so I want to start with a good one, but I'll probably end up trying a few anyway...
Thanks for the suggestions.

@meega:

Yes, I very much like TotalCalc.  Though, now the spark of curiosity has set light to my urge to try some others.

Thanks, guys.  Like I don't already have enough stuff to distract me from work I need to get done :-P

I've always loved the Hp-11c emulator.  I wish it could be updated with choosable colors or skins.

In addition to Amigas, I've collected a few Hps as well.

I don't like the way the hp-11c operates. Ended up going for TotalCalc too! I think the display could be improved to reuse already typed stuff, like a Casio 9800 series. But it's the more user friendly and does what I need it too.

BTW, found a very old bug goldy one by some Japanese guy it seems on fish disk 210. It has a whole bunch of programmer friendly stuff like bitwise operations. Most scientific stuff is there and also has a plotter !

I made a calculator a very long time ago. I believe it was one of the first things I did on the Amiga.

It is not wonderful, but it works I´ll check if I still have it somewhere in my HD
