mechanical veeder root designs that had a series of counting wheels that went round and round generating a carry to the next wheel when the ten count was reached. The next most mentioned design was the application specific chip sets that immediately preceeded the actual microprocessor designs (the 4004 and 4040 intel chips and the PPS4 and PPS8 rockwell chipsets). However in between the counting tube and counting circuit designs and the first application specific chipsets there were quite a few machines that used many discreet i.c.'s that implemented a serial calculator design. The Frieden 130 and the Victor 500 series (that used crt displays) were actually of this type. The memory element was either a magnostrictive delay line of a shift register (either dynamic or static). The calculation circuits were actually single bit arraignments. Numbers were coded into a parallel to serial shift register (keyboard input) and then dumped into the serial memory. As the bits came out of the serial memory they went into another register just prior to going into the adder/subtracter. the data stream then went into one of three or four display registers (to be sent to the 'stroke generator' that drove the crt display). One of these registers (one could call it the 'accumulator) would be sent back to the serial memory. Most of my experiance was with the Victor line of calculators, but I also worked on Sharp, Casion, and a host of other serial based machines. There was usually a binary counter and decoder to develope timing signals to get the data into and out of the serial memory in a timely fashion (this was usually reffered to as a 'stste machine'). I have some info on the discreet chios that were used in these early designs and would love to collaborate with someone on expounding on this design.

binary numbers, and add, subtract, multiply, and divide those. While a computer might do much arithmetic before needing to display the result, calculators normally display intermediate results. It is easier and faster to do all the calculation in BCD than to convert to/from pure binary at each step. It is easy (in logic) and fast enough, to do a BCD digit serial processor along with some shift registers. It would be nice to show this in more detail.
1538:, which says "Recentism is writing or editing without a long-term, historical view ... resulting in ... muddling or diffusion of the timeless facets of a subject, previously recognized by Knowledge consensus." Let's don't do that. When the calculator article was split into mechanical and electronic parts, the titles should have been adjusted to reflect that. The prior concensus was that both are important facets of calculators. 3633: 4446: 1962:. If you look in books (in Google book search, for example), you'll find "calculator" used for a huge variety of things, including software apps, books of tables, cardboard analog contrivances, etc. And you'll find "electronic calculator" used in many more books than "mechanical calculator". Taken together, and looking at the contents of this article, and the history of its split from 191: 943:– whether electronic calculator is the primary topic or not is irrelevant. If it is, it should redirect to "electronic calculator", and if it's not it should be a disambig. Either way, since mechanical calculators were taken out of what was previously a larger-scope article, the title "electronic calculator" does a much better job of saying what this article is about. 733:. But what about trigonometric functions and square roots? How does a calculator know the answer there? It's clear logic gates are involved, but it would be interesting to see an explanation that makes sense. Would anyone know how to explain this in the article? I might if I find some more background info, but if someone understands it already then that might save time. 4307:
There is Disagreement over the use of calculators in school? A certain 8th grade student studying in Europe cannot do 25+10, in his head, but depends on his calculator to do it. Why is there disagreement? Calculators certainly suppress arithmetic skills in young students. Soon we shall see arithmetic

As far as I know, it is usual, from pretty much the beginning of electronic hand calculators through today, to do BCD digit serial arithmetic. Even more, the wikilink links to serial communication, and not bit serial ALU discussion. The logic for a BCD digit serial add/subtract is fairly simple, and

The section "Internal working" seems out of date, and is referenced to a 30 year old publication by Usborne, which I recall is a publisher of children's books.

more. When I think of electronic calculators I think "calculator" and having the article titled "electronic calculator" feels stuffy. It makes me wonder if there is some regionalism in play (eg soda vs. pop vs. "cold coke"), like maybe only people near where I live call them calculators but people on

That's a funny example to cite, being mostly an example of how the imprecision we're talking about results in a ridiculous statement: "The first calculator debuted 67 years ago ... a huge upgrade from old mechanical calculators then in use." It's electro-mechanical, and it's not even a calculator in

OK, to make this more interesting, as I understand it the SAT requires test takers to have a graphing calculator. Presumably some could survive with a non-graphing calculator, but rules are rules. The oldest on the list, last I looked, is the HP28C, which is a graphing calculator from about 1989.

I just tried to improve the article by adding the mention that there are calculators performing exactly the same functions as all the now historical electronic calculators and those comments were removed. It is relevant to an article titled "Calculator" that the same technology once available only

I worked on electronic calculators during the mid to late 1970's. This article, like most articles on electronic calculators I have seen leaves out a whole segment of calculator designs. The very early electronic calculator designs used 'counting tubes' and later counting circuits that mimicked the

The problem I have is that it describes a technology that is not current. X and Y registers and segmented displays? We are not in the 1980's. The bird has grown bigger wings. I agree that expansion by someone who knows the subject and can provide good references is required, but, as it stands I am

and get on with the question of what it would best be titled. That's where precision comes in. The title guidelines used to say that when you change the scope of an article by a merge or split you should consider retitling it to fit; but I think that went away at some point, even though it makes

The request at the top of this section says 'Calculator should become a disambiguation page with links to the two halves of the split'. I'm not supporting that. Are you? I'm saying 'calculator' should be a redirect to 'electronic calculator', and the hatnote on 'electronic calculator' should point

The common usage of the word 'calculator' is undoubtedly to denote an electronic calculator, and it's what most people would type into the search box to find an article, but the requirement for precison suggests that the article should be called 'electronic calculator'. So 'calculator' shoud be a

HP25 are available on eBay, but a little expensive. They are usually considered pocket calculators, but when I bought my HP25C for college, my dad suggested I buy the security cradle for it. That keeps it on the desk. Of the available older HP calculators, the 28C and 28S are often reasonably

I don't know about 8th grade, but many high school classes now require calculators, with the TI-83 being a popular choice. More specifically, a graphing calculator. That allows for visual (graphic) learning for algebra through calculus. As I noted above, for some years now the SAT requires a

You're probably right; we should include a rough guide as to how calculators do their stuff. IMO this can easily be explained in a concise step-by-step text linking calc functionality to the relevant detailed articles on WKP about computers, since calcs is nothing more than specialized digital

Just wondering, any more thoughts on this? Either way is fine to me, but it does seem that newer calculators have enough more features to have a new article. For one, traditional calculators evaluate operations as the go along, where the usual graphing calculator allows one to enter the whole
3771:
Note that the SAT now requires a graphing calculator. It looks like they won't even let you use a non-graphing, new or old, model. They specifically exclude models with an alphanumeric keypad, as that does make it easier to cheat. The ACT is more restrictive, but still allows the more common

One more tidbit ... TI released the four function Datamath (around $ 40) at the same time the SR-50 was released. I have both of these calculators ... do you want photos? I remember the price of the SR-50 to be $ 150, although that may have been a discounted price for TI employees. I don't

Not crazy, just matching the title to the content. I am surprised there is disagreement about what a calculator is. Any device that can do calculations is a calculator - vernacular usage does not govern content here. A "Calculator" article should encompass all devices that calculate not just

The article doesn't mention that TI submitted a patent for the handheld calculator in 1967, which they (as well as the Knowledge article on TI) define as "inventing the handheld calculator". However it seems that the patent application didn't stop other companies from introducing handheld

2986:, and has little to do with PRIMARYTOPIC or PRECISION. Those other issues were relevant to the abandoned move request, but not really to this one. In other words, what do English language reliable sources most frequently refer to this subject as? That is the issue. Does that sound right? 3509:
It could be better, but doesn't seem so far off, for the simplest calculators. Registers are commonly called X and Y in the internal design, though you don't see that in the user documentation. More complicated calculators have more registers, but the basic ideas are still there.
2602:
This sounds like backwards reasoning to me. Yes, I might might not be surprised if an article about electronic calculators would be titled "Calculator", but given an article titled "Calculator", I would expect it to cover mechanical calculator as well, which isn't the case here.

The broader scope would of course not be analogous to trying to cover in one article the various cities called Boston, just because they share a name. Calculators aren't just things sharing a name; they are a set of things broader than what the current article is about.

I suppose it could, but what, more specifically, should be included that isn't here? Should (this is a real question) there also be articles for scientific and business calculators? Is it just the visual aid of graphing calculators that is interesting, or something else?

expression before evaluating it. That is mostly because memory is cheap now, and processors faster. It would also be interesting to mention the symbolic arithmetic that some models now have. (Actually, that goes back to the HP28C, but it caught on slow with others.)
2389:
But it also says that if there's a primary topic for, in this case, "calculator", then there is no need to disambiguate further if "calculator" is also the commonname. This debate, I think, is just about whether "calculator" is the common name for the subject.

This article neglects to mention what people used for calculators before mechanical calculators. I know very little about this area, but it seems as if someone who did could add a section after abacus to talk about using human labour to produce calculations.
3110:
In the language of PRIMARYTOPIC, "Calculator" is the "ambiguous term"; we satisfy PT by making it a redirect; read it; that's why he closed the other one, that said to make it a disambig, so we could all agree that this article is the primary topic for

This is an encyclopedia, not the Staples catalog. We should cover the whole topic - a couple of paragraphs at least to cover the epic brawling saga of mechanical calculators ( the men who built them...the women who loved them...) before a pointer at

My point was that (vanishingly) few would be surprised to get an article about electronic calculators when they go to an article with the title "Calculator". IOW, the precision concerns are not an issue; it's ok to leave this article where it is.

Technogeezer, please start this section. I can help too, as I am highly interested. Please write at least four lines. Then we can extend. I do not know much about calculator design in depth, but many things about digital electronic fundamentals.

it is fed by, and feeds into, shift registers. The shift registers then recirculate in time with the display multiplexer to keep the display going. This also led to the Intel 4004 as a four bit processor, convenient for doing BCD arithmetic.

I apologize for the confusion. The core of my position is that "calculator" is CN for all types of calculators, certainly for mechanical and electronic ones. PRECISION suggests we distinguish the types of calculators by their article titles,

Then the other move request should be re-opened. This request does nothing to satisfy any PRIMARYTOPIC concerns. If electronic calculators are not the PRIMARYTOPIC for "calculator" then this proposal here should not be implemented.

And just the other day I was using a slide rule to calculate the answer to my wife's question as to how much it would cost to re-pave the driveway. The article should talk about all calculators, not just the $ 2.99 bin at Staples.

I think we're saying the same thing? If we're agreed that the electronic ones are the primary topic then we're just debating here about what to name the article itself. I'm confused because Joja keeps bringing up PRIMARYTOPIC in

Especially of interest may be firing solutions in WWI/WWII-era submarine (I believe the person in charge of that was called a calculator, IANANO), and the scores of women that signed up to become calculators for the war effort.

At some point, the (usually) women were called computers (before the electrical or electromechanical devices), and used, usually, mechanical calculators in their work. I suppose earlier, they would have used pencil and paper.

That is outside the scope of the article in my opinion, especially since different calculators will calculate different ways. One way might be using an interpreter to convert an arithmetic expression into postfix notation
