RPN Calculator

Description

RPN Calculator is a reverse polish notation programmable calculator for science and engineering. It supports over 180 functions and 11 data types (real, integer, variable, vector, matrix, list, program, unit, complex, string, and tag). The stack, variables, and programs can be saved and reloaded. The number of levels of stack that can be used is virtually unlimited. If the number of levels in the stack exceeds the display, you can scroll up or down to see more.

Installation

Windows 9x/NT: The files rpncalc.exe, rpncalc.cnt, and rpncalc.hlp must be unzipped to the same folder.  Set up an icon or shortcut to rpncalc.exe.  Registered users must put rpncreg.dll in their system folder (Windows 9x) or system32 folder (Windows NT).

Windows CE: The files rpnsetup.exe, rpncalc.ini, rpncmips.cab, and rpncsh3.cab must be unzipped to the same folder on the desktop computer.  Rpnsetup.exe must be run while the Windows CE device is connected.  The setup program launches the Windows CE Application Manager to complete the installation.  Registered users must put rpncreg.ini, rpnrmips.cab, and rpnrsh3.cab in the same folder as rpnsetup.exe before running the setup program.

All versions (except Windows CE on palm-sized PCs): A command line argument of a saved filename is optional (Note: to use this feature, the saved file must first be created with RPN Calculator).
