Reverse Polish Notation in the Calculator

Is there a way to make the iPhone calculator use RPN? I have used a HP calculator for years and am much more comfortable with this operating system.

MacBookPro, Mac OS X (10.7.2), 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7

For RPN support you will need to go third party.


As the developer I am biased but I suggest taking a look at Perpenso Calc. It is five calculators in one: scientific, statistics, business, hex and bill/tip. With its support for RPN, fractions, complex numbers and many other features it is comparable to traditional handheld calculators. iPad specific functionality includes customizable display lines.


A related iPhone app, Perpenso Calc 4, is a lite app and is upgradable to full via In-App Purchase. RPN is only supported in full mode but lite mode will give you an idea of what the calculator can do in its scientific mode which includes fractions and complex numbers.

I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link.
