A calculator is a device for performing numerical calculations . The type is considered distinct from both a calculating machine and a computer in that the calculator is a special-purpose device that may not qualify as a Turing machine . Although modern calculators often incorporate a general purpose computer, the device as a whole is designed for ease of use to perform specific operations, rather than for flexibility. Also, modern calculators are far more portable than other devices called computers. |

A calculator is a device for performing numerical calculations . It should not be confused with a calculating machine . Nowadays many people have a calculator with them as part of their mobile phone and/or personal digital assistant . Engineers and accountants make use of calculators for problems where a computation is not complex enough to demand the use of a general-purpose computer . Students use calculators for schoolwork. Also, some wrist watches contain a calculator (although this was more a fad of the 1980s ). |
