HP-32S

The HP-32S was a programmable RPN scientific calculator introduced by Hewlett-Packard in 1988 and discontinued in 1991. It continued the tradition of the Hp 11c calculator, as it lacked the higher functions such as matrix calculations and reduced functionality in complex calculations of the highest end Hp 15c Voyager line. It supported limited complex math, statistics, probability, etc.

In 1989, Hewlett-Packard offered a HP-32S 50th Anniversary Limited Edition to employees and shareholders for HP's 50th anniversary.

HP-32SII

The HP-32SII (F1891A) (with prototypes still named HP-32S+) added algebraic math, fractions and a second shift key. This was introduced in 1991 and discontinued in 2002. Two different model variants of the HP-32SII exist.

Sample Program

This is an HP-32SII version of the Euclidean algorithm to find the greatest common divisor. It is run by entering the two numbers for which the GCD is wanted, and pressing XEQ E.
