Binomial distribution
In probability theory and statistics, the binomial distribution with parameters and is the discrete probability distribution of the number of successes in a sequence of independent experiments, each asking a yes–no question, and each with its own Boolean-valued outcome: success (with probability) or failure (with probability).
See HP-20S and Binomial distribution
Chi-squared test
A chi-squared test (also chi-square or test) is a statistical hypothesis test used in the analysis of contingency tables when the sample sizes are large.
See HP-20S and Chi-squared test
Combination
In mathematics, a combination is a selection of items from a set that has distinct members, such that the order of selection does not matter (unlike permutations).
Complex number
In mathematics, a complex number is an element of a number system that extends the real numbers with a specific element denoted, called the imaginary unit and satisfying the equation i^.
Consumer Electronics Show
CES (formerly an initialism for Consumer Electronics Show) is an annual trade show organized by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA).
See HP-20S and Consumer Electronics Show
Dot-matrix display
A dot-matrix display is a low-cost electronic digital display device that displays information on machines such as clocks, watches, calculators, and many other devices requiring a simple alphanumeric (and/or graphic) display device of limited resolution.
See HP-20S and Dot-matrix display
Factorial
In mathematics, the factorial of a non-negative denoted is the product of all positive integers less than or equal The factorial also equals the product of n with the next smaller factorial: \begin n! &.
Hewlett-Packard
The Hewlett-Packard Company, commonly shortened to Hewlett-Packard or HP, was an American multinational information technology company headquartered in Palo Alto, California.
See HP-20S and Hewlett-Packard
HP calculators
HP calculators are various calculators manufactured by the Hewlett-Packard company over the years.
HP Saturn
The Saturn family of 4-bit (datapath) microprocessors was developed by Hewlett-Packard in the 1980s first for the HP-71B handheld computer, released in 1984, and later for various HP calculators (starting with the HP-18C).
HP-10B
The HP-10B (F1636A) is a student business calculator introduced in 1987. HP-20S and HP-10B are hP Pioneer series calculators and hP calculators.
HP-22S
The HP-22S is an electronic calculator from the Hewlett-Packard company which is algebraic and scientific. HP-20S and HP-22S are hP Pioneer series calculators and hP calculators.
HP-32S
The HP-32S (codenamed "Leonardo") was a programmable RPN scientific calculator introduced by Hewlett-Packard in 1988. HP-20S and HP-32S are hP Pioneer series calculators and hP calculators.
HP-35
The HP-35 was Hewlett-Packard's first pocket calculator and the world's first scientific pocket calculator: a calculator with trigonometric and exponential functions. HP-20S and HP-35 are hP calculators.
See HP-20S and HP-35
HP-42S
The HP-42S RPN Scientific is a programmable RPN Scientific hand held calculator introduced by Hewlett-Packard in 1988. HP-20S and hP-42S are hP Pioneer series calculators and hP calculators.
Infix notation
Infix notation is the notation commonly used in arithmetical and logical formulae and statements.
Keystroke programming
Keystroke programming describes a specific way of programming by which each keystroke on a device or application is recorded in some way and then played back so that the recorded key-presses can be repeated multiple times.
See HP-20S and Keystroke programming
Kilobyte
The kilobyte is a multiple of the unit byte for digital information.
Liquid-crystal display
A liquid-crystal display (LCD) is a flat-panel display or other electronically modulated optical device that uses the light-modulating properties of liquid crystals combined with polarizers.
See HP-20S and Liquid-crystal display
Permutation
In mathematics, a permutation of a set can mean one of two different things.
Programmable calculator
Programmable calculators are calculators that can automatically carry out a sequence of operations under control of a stored program.
See HP-20S and Programmable calculator
Read-only memory
Read-only memory (ROM) is a type of non-volatile memory used in computers and other electronic devices.
See HP-20S and Read-only memory
Reverse Polish notation
Reverse Polish notation (RPN), also known as reverse Łukasiewicz notation, Polish postfix notation or simply postfix notation, is a mathematical notation in which operators follow their operands, in contrast to prefix or Polish notation (PN), in which operators precede their operands.
See HP-20S and Reverse Polish notation
Science (journal)
Science, also widely referred to as Science Magazine, is the peer-reviewed academic journal of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and one of the world's top academic journals.
See HP-20S and Science (journal)
Scientific American
Scientific American, informally abbreviated SciAm or sometimes SA, is an American popular science magazine.
See HP-20S and Scientific American
Scientific calculator
A scientific calculator is an electronic calculator, either desktop or handheld, designed to perform calculations using basic (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division) and complex (trigonometric, hyperbolic, etc.) mathematical operations and functions.
See HP-20S and Scientific calculator
Seven-segment display
A seven-segment display is a form of electronic display device for displaying decimal numerals that is an alternative to the more complex dot matrix displays.
See HP-20S and Seven-segment display
Simpson's rule
In numerical integration, Simpson's rules are several approximations for definite integrals, named after Thomas Simpson (1710–1761).
Time value of money
The time value of money is the widely accepted conjecture that there is greater benefit to receiving a sum of money now rather than an identical sum later.
