If it isn't modified there is no problem: there is no memory nor alphabetic capabilities in his memory.

If it is modified inside, its display can show a lot of an all type of information as it has a complete line with full dot-matrix.

(Me, hopefully, RPN is so much better than brackets hell where I put brackets around everything because I'm not sure how the calculator would interpret it)

HP 15C is very old, but there was a "remake" by HP aound 2011 (more speed but with a few severe bugs). And some people can use their father or grandfather HP calculator instead of buying a new and worse one

I prefer HP 15C to most actual non-graphic scientific calculators. For example HP 15C is much better than most actual Casio: it can handle complex numbers with all functions, while most Casio can't do that, even actual models listed with "Complex number support".

Of course HP 15C (al least original 15C I own) is really slow. If you run a long loop program or an integral approximation you must be really patient.
