Translated from the Wikinspire family, the NumWorks calculator is equipped with a non-touch color LCD2.
It offers a programmable interface in Python. Launched in France in the summer of 2017, the NumWorks calculator was quickly sold to several thousand students among French high schools, mainly thanks to a fine design, Python interface (programming language whose learning is mandatory in secondary education in France), the recommendations of many teachers and the creation of a community of users offering various applications online. The calculator is announced in open hardware (“open hardware”, schemas and plans are available) and under open source with a Creative Commons BY-NC-ND4 license.
Translated from the Wiki
This is a calculator that has a great design and Python build into the OS. Updating is easy, just a modern
Why do you need it
Great design, build with durability from the beginning and it can be upgraded. It has all the functions of a regular calculator and it can be programmed without much extra training.
What’s the fun part?
It runs Python, had a USB connection and utilizes webUSB for updating. The calculator runs the core uPy and can be programmed with a computer. Or if you are up for a challenge… with the ABC-keyboard on the device. I’ve written a small script to return a random value of a dice.
Code Example
The example can also be found here
import random
#returns a number
def roll_dice():
print (random.randint(1, 6))
print("""
This python script returns a random value between 1 and 6. It's a dice
""")
flag = True
while flag:
user_prompt = input(">")
if user_prompt.lower() == "quit":
flag = False
else:
print("Rolling dice...\nYour number is:")
roll_dice()
