@dangoljames When I grew up my father had the HP-65, a real marvel of a machine with magnetic strips for program storage. We kids would play the moon lander game on it. HP RPN keypresses may have been my first language''. I wrote programs in the standardized paper forms HP provided, just sequences of keypresses on the calculator.
