RE: Apps for the prime.
Thanks all for the replies!

The 50g certainly fills the nostalgia a little bit more than the prime but I think the prime might work a bitter better for my son.

I haven't programmed my 42S for a long time, when I talk about using RPN it's more how I like to work with it in the workshop doing a few calculations so I would be surprised if it doesn't work how I am used to.

I did start to make the application last night. It was pretty simple, its language is close to a lot of languages I have had to use over the years, my only hiccup was using '=' as assignment instead of ':=' then wondering for a little while why things remained at their initial value Smile

The only thing I didn't like was the INPUT function. It uses a fullscreen dialog and I was hoping to have some function that would read/write kb presses on the screen.

No problem, I can write one with textoutput and getkey but it seems like something should exist for people using textoutput and graphics for their display who don't want the entire screen hidden during input.

I have not looked at the 50G so I will do that anyway, I have a feeling that the 50g might last as long as my 42s but I doubt the prime would.
