About Scrolling RPN Calculator
The only fully featured scientific RPN calculator with a modern iOS interface: Scroll through panels of operation-buttons with a swipe of your finger. Scroll through numbers to review (and edit) your entries and calculation results. Share or transfer your results by emailing the stack.
The Scrolling Scientific Calculator gives you fast access to both basic and scientific operations with large buttons in both portrait and landscape orientations.
* Adding machine: What is the most common use for a calculator? Adding numbers, of course! Just enter the numbers, review them by scrolling, with a swipe of your finger, then hit the [total] button. No more entering numbers twice to check your calculation.
* Statistics: Enter the numbers, review them by scrolling, with a swipe of your finger, then hit the [stats] button. The following statistics are added to the stack and labelled:
Count,
Total,
Total Of Squares,
Product,
Maximum,
Minimum,
Range,
Mean,
Median,
Mode,
Root Mean Square,
Geometric Mean,
Variance,
Unbiased Sample Variance,
Population Standard Deviation,
Sample Standard Deviation.
* No awkward 80's style retro interface: Scroll through panels of large operation buttons by swiping left and right.
* Operations include: total, count, mean, median, mode, variance, standard deviation (population & sample), trigonometric, hyperbolic, logarithmic, powers, roots, inverse, factorial, percent, add, subtract, multiply, divide, etc.
* Value formatting: Specify either the number of significant digits, or number of fraction digits after the decimal point. International number formats with group separator.
* Display numbers as hexadecimal by simply scrolling to the hexadecimal panel.
* Reverse Polish notation (RPN) operation.
The Scrolling Scientific Calculator is ideal for:
* Anyone who adds numbers together (e.g. receipt values.)
* Anyone recording sample readings to find averages, variances and standard deviations.
* Anyone who wants a scientific RPN calculator, and is looking for a modern, uncluttered interface ideal for their iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad.
* Kids (!) learning to add and subtract love entering the numbers and seeing them on the screen before they hit the + or - operation buttons. They can talk through the operation as it happens.
Note: This is an RPN calculator, so there is no "=" button. Proposed in the 1950s by Australian philosopher Charles L Hamblin, RPN is the way most people would actually calculate an expression in their head or on paper: "1 enter 2 enter +" instead of "1 + 2 =".

Refresh with iOS 12 SDK.
4.0
Dec 12, 2018
New in 4.0: Support for iPhone X/XR/XS and 2018 iPad Pro displays.
New in 3.5: Fixed a bug that can appear in Hexadecimal mode.
New in 3.4: More tweaking to the affect of changing Digits Mode:
* As before, all values on the stack are stored in full precision.
* As before, changing the Digits Mode (fixed fraction, mixed fraction or significant digits) or the number of decimal places will only affect the display of stack values. The stored values are not changed.
* What's new: Operations will use the value of stack items "as displayed" for the current Digits Mode.
Example:
- Set mode to Mixed Fraction, 7 decimal places.
- Key in 100, 3, [Divide], [Enter]
(Value 33.3333333 is on the stack.)
- Key [Enter] twice.
(Value 33.3333333 is now on the stack three times.)
- Change mode to Fixed Fraction, 2 decimal places.
(Values 33.33, 33.3 and 33.33 are on the stack.)
- Key [Add]
(Values 33.33 and 66.66 are on the stack.)
- Change mode back to Mixed Fraction, 7 decimal places.
(Values 33.3333333 and 66.66, (not 66.6666666) are on the stack.)
This is because the first value is still "100 divided by 3" and the second is the "33.33 + 33.33".
New in 3.5: Fixed a bug that can appear in Hexadecimal mode.

(A) Specify either the number of significant digits or number of fraction digits.
(B) International number formats with group separator:
"1,234,567.89"
"1,234,567·89"
"1 234 567.89"
"1 234 567,89"

"1'234'567,89"
(C) The "clear stack" gesture is now a swipe instead of a double-tap, which means you can 'backspace' faster.
