Prime and 50g, interesting perspective

extract from part 2 :
"On the other hand, RPL is nice for short programs. But when your code grows in complexity, it quickly becomes almost unreadable and very difficult to follow, especially when you go back to it a few months later. I recently wrote a medium-sized program for the Prime, about 2.000 lines of code, and I’m pretty sure that if I had tried to code it in RPL, it would have been a nightmare.

The fact is, I don’t use RPN anymore. And the most interesting thing is… I don’t miss it one bit. I think the HP Prime shows its true potential when used as an algebraic calculator. So, if you are a long-time RPN user like me, just give the Algebraic mode a chance. Maybe you’ll be pleasantly surprised.
