A calculator character set is a character encoding scheme for a calculator. Examples include: *Casio calculator character sets, character sets used by Casio calculators *Hewlett-Packard calculator character sets, character sets used by Hewlett-Packard calculators *Sharp calculator character sets, character sets used by Sharp calculators *Texas Instruments calculator character sets In computing, a character set is a system of assigning numbers to characters so that text can be represented as a list of numbers (which are then stored, for example, as a file). For example, ASCII assigns 61 to "A". As part of the design process, ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Character Encoding
Character encoding is the process of assigning numbers to graphical characters, especially the written characters of human language, allowing them to be stored, transmitted, and transformed using digital computers. The numerical values that make up a character encoding are known as "code points" and collectively comprise a "code space", a "code page", or a " character map". Early character codes associated with the optical or electrical telegraph could only represent a subset of the characters used in written languages, sometimes restricted to upper case letters, numerals and some punctuation only. The low cost of digital representation of data in modern computer systems allows more elaborate character codes (such as Unicode) which represent most of the characters used in many written languages. Character encoding using internationally accepted standards permits worldwide interchange of text in electronic form. History The history of character codes illustrates the ...

Calculator
An electronic calculator is typically a portable electronic device used to perform calculations, ranging from basic arithmetic to complex mathematics. The first solid-state electronic calculator was created in the early 1960s. Pocket-sized devices became available in the 1970s, especially after the Intel 4004, the first microprocessor, was developed by Intel for the Japanese calculator company Busicom. Modern electronic calculators vary from cheap, give-away, credit-card-sized models to sturdy desktop models with built-in printers. They became popular in the mid-1970s as the incorporation of integrated circuits reduced their size and cost. By the end of that decade, prices had dropped to the point where a basic calculator was affordable to most and they became common in schools. Computer operating systems as far back as early Unix have included interactive calculator programs such as dc and hoc, and interactive BASIC could be used to do calculations on most 1970s a ...

Hewlett-Packard Calculator Character Sets
HP calculator character set refers to various calculator character sets used in calculators manufactured by Hewlett-Packard. These include: * FOCAL character set, a character set used by some calculators supporting the FOCAL programming language between 1979 and 1995 * Modified HP Roman-8, a variant of Hewlett-Packard's Roman-8 used on some calculators between 1986 and 2015 * RPL character set The RPL character set is an 8-bit character set and encoding used by most RPL calculators manufactured by Hewlett-Packard as well as by the HP 82240B thermo printer. It is sometimes referred to simply as "ECMA-94" in documentation, although i ..., a character set used on various Hewlett-Packard RPL calculators between 1989 and 2015 * Unicode, a character set used on some new calculators since 2011 ( 39gII, Prime) Notes See also * Calculator character sets {{Set index article ...

Sharp Calculator Character Sets
The Sharp pocket computer character sets are a number of 8-bit character sets used by various Sharp pocket computers and calculators in the 1980s and mid 1990s. Character sets PC-12xx and PC-14xx series The Sharp PC-14xx series (like the Sharp PC-1403 (1986), PC-1403H or PC-1475) uses an 8-bit extended ASCII character set. With minor exceptions the lower half resembles the 7-bit ASCII character set. The upper half contains a full set of half-width Katakana glyphs as well as a number of graphical and mathematical symbols. The Japanese glyphs are not documented and are available only after enabling an undocumented ''Japanese mode''. PC-150x series The Sharp PC-1500 series uses a 7-bit character set derived from ASCII. Differences show the Unicode code point below the glyph. PC-160x series The Sharp PC-1600 supports two character sets. In "MODE 0", the character set resembles code page 437, whereas in "MODE 1" certain code points are changed to become compatible w ...
