Apps for the prime.
Hi all, I cannot live without my recently deceased 42S so I am looking for something else. I have used RPN for the last 25 years and want to stick with that for my day to day use.

It's been so long since I needed to buy a new calculator that I don't see any reason for not going for a top of the line one as the prices are so different than they used to be, price isn't even a consideration when you can get something like this for $115.

There were a couple reasons I need a real calc over an iPad/phone calc, in one of the environments I work in I need to wear gloves when doing calcs, the iPad/phone solution doesn't really work there. I also like buttons!

Now the question I asked in the subject was around apps? I am just about to go through the documentation and my get the answers there but thought it good to ask before I buy.

Is there any chance that programs can be written to quiz math facts, e.g. multiplication tables?

The reason is for my son. I can write the app if it is possible. I remember when I was young and had calculators that did all sorts of things I had no idea about I was fascinated playing with them. It's part of what has given me a lifelong interest in the sciences.

I know I could get an iPad app to do the same thing but I was thinking he might get the same enjoyment I used to get when I was younger playing around with a calculator.

Thanks,
Jason
