Comment on Illustrated Self-Guided Course On How To Use The Slide Rule

Comments

Being in Junior College in 1973, some of the kids had 4 function calculators hanging off their belt. The rest of us in a tech track usually carried a slide rule.

I did take a technical math class that involved programming a desktop calculator. Basically the first programming class I had.

I wish I remembered what brand it was, I'd like to try to pick one up if I could find one.
