@ADL - Thanks for the kind words! While changing the batteries, I found a few new characters I hadn't noticed before - hence, the updates. As I don't use all of the calculator's functions, I know there are still a few missing characters lurking about in the circuits somewhere...

I thought of trying a similar exercise with the calculator of my young days ... but the abacus doesn't use a font!

Nice one GM. 10/10

@p2pnut -- Ha ha! True, but you could certainly use FontStruct to make a dingbat font of Abacuses / Abaci. Each glyph could have the beads in various positions representing different numerical values.

And as usual, many thanks for the support and kind words! :^)

Cool. But are you sure that the “≠” is the right way around?

@TH3_C0N-MAN - Oddly enough, it is.  This inequality is used in the programming portion for value/variable comparisons, and for some reason, they made it as =\= instead of the traditional =/=.  It's also the same on the menu button (see attached picture):

Hmm. It’s not like that on mine.

@TH3_C0N-MAN - My fx-7700G model is 30 years old.  I'm sure Casio corrected this 'error' long before you got your fx-9750GII.  ;^)
