Question for the young'uns - calculators in school?

Quote:But HP calculators, you actually enter it in RPN notation.

I said:
Quote:HP's are actually based around this method...so much so, that you have to enter your calculations in reverse polish.

SYNT said:
Quote:However, every calculator still has a scheme that changes your input into RPN form. A cheapo calculator will turn "5+3 x 2" into 2 3 5 + x, and a scientific calculator will internally turn it into 5 3 2 x +.

and this:
Quote:Everyone else, and I mean EVERYONE uses infix notation to ENTER the numbers.

I said:
Quote:I think other calculators do this translation for you after you enter the keystrokes.

Hmmmmmmmm....seems oddly similar to me, except for the fact that I could not remember that it was called INFIX notation. Rolleyes I took this class a year ago, I'm expect to remember every detail? Sheesh :banana:
