RE: Why do calculator manufactures like to reinvent the wheel?
The OS gives memory out to applications. The applications have to manage their memory themselves. When you use malloc/free in C, it generally grabs a pool of memory from the OS and dishes that out piecemeal.
For a calculator, the application/firmware has to do all the memory management itself. - Pauli |
