- realo 8y agoYeah... RPN et al... :)
- gugagore 8y agoThough famously (I believe) it was HP calculators that were known for reverse-Polish notation.
- opencl 8y agoThat's the joke, I imagine. RPN is Forth-like in that they're both stack based. Their 28/48/49/50G line shipped with RPL(Reverse Polish Lisp) which was heavily inspired by both Forth and Lisp. Very weird language but I always enjoyed programming those calculators. The ancient HP41 and HP71 did have Forth interpreter ROMs available.
