RPN mode needed for scientific calculations.--Mokurai 22:01, 19 May 2007 (EDT) (not sure whether this still applies to the new version Rwh 10:27, 15 July 2007 (EDT))

I suggest that a better solution would be to allow multistep calculations with saved 'variables'. This can do everything that RPN enables, but is easier to teach to children, closer to the global standard language of mathematics, and it leads directly to programming as a logical outgrowth of multistep calculations.
