HP16C vs my57

A faithful recreation of the legendary HP 16C Computer Scientist calculator for iPhone, with a few modern upgrades. If you've ever needed to perform hex arithmetic, bit manipulation, or base conversion on your phone and been frustrated by the available options, this is for you. RPN-16C gives you the full power of the original HP 16C in your pocket. WHAT IT DOES - Full RPN (Reverse Polish Notation) calculator - Integer arithmetic in HEX, DEC, OCT, and BIN - Configurable word size from 1 to 64 bits - Unsigned, one's complement, and two's complement modes - Complete bit operations: shift, rotate, rotate through carry, AND, OR, XOR, NOT, mask, bit set/clear/test, count bits, left justify - Float mode with configurable precision (FLOAT 0-9) - Keystroke programming with labels, subroutines, loops, and conditionals - Storage registers with direct and indirect addressing - Programs can be imported from text (long-press the display to paste) ENHANCEMENTS OVER THE ORIGINAL - Two-line display: see both X and Y registers at once. No more guessing what's on the stack. - Wider LCD: displays all 32 bits in binary without scrolling. The original could only show 8 at a time. - Haptic feedback on every key press - State persistence: pick up right where you left off - SHOW function to peek at values in other bases FAIR WARNING This is a quirky calculator. It uses Reverse Polish Notation, has no equals key, and expects you to know what two's complement means. If you're looking for a simple calculator, this is not it. If you've ever wished you could do a bitwise rotate through carry on your phone, welcome home. DESIGNED FOR PROGRAMMERS The key layout matches the physical HP 16C exactly, including the f (gold) and g (blue) shift labels. If you know the original, you already know this one.

Relive the classic 1977 Programmable 57 pocket calculator — faithfully recreated for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. my57 is a cycle-accurate emulator running the same ROM microcode as the original hardware. Every function, every keystroke, and every quirk — including its number formatting and error-blinking display — is reproduced exactly, not reimplemented. AUTHENTIC HARDWARE • 12-digit red LED display with a diffuser-glass texture and optional LED Glow • Real Speed mode runs at the original ~5,000 cycles/second, or switch to Turbo for instant results • Two documented factory ROM revisions (rev0/rev1) to choose from • Algebraic Operating System (AOS) entry, exactly like the original FULL PROGRAMMING SUPPORT • 50 program steps with LRN (Learn) mode • 8 addressable memory registers • GTO, subroutines (SBR), conditional branches (x=t, x≥t), and Dsz counting loops • Scientific notation, trigonometric functions, logarithms, and statistics (mean, variance, standard deviation) BEYOND THE ORIGINAL • Program & Memory panel — see every step's code and mnemonic, edit registers directly, insert/delete steps with undo • Saved program library — save, rename, and organize your programs • Share programs as .my57 files via Mail, Messages, AirDrop, or any app • iCloud Sync keeps your programs, registers, and library current across every device BUILT-IN USER'S GUIDE A complete guide is right inside the app — covering the interface for newcomers, plus a full programming tutorial with worked examples (loops, subroutines, factorials, linear regression, and more) for anyone who wants to actually learn to program it. DESIGNED FOR EVERY DEVICE • iPhone: portrait, full-screen • iPad: side-by-side program panel in landscape • Mac: resizable window with full physical keyboard support
