I hope your son finds the fun and fascination of these topics. I think he is lucky to have you as his dad!

Richard, thanks for this reference, I will try to get this one too.
Regarding the boy in question, he is my friend's son, not mine. My wife and I have three children:
- my little caveman #1 is 11 years old. Good at maths and a brilliant mind, but he suffers a sort of condition quite common these days... some kind of allergy to any intelectual efforts :.! Work in progress ;0)
- my little caveman #2 is 9, and his soul is one of a kind. He always has wanted to be a priest someday 0:') God only knows.
- my little princess is 7. She masters the RPN stack in my Free42/Kindle (she tries from time to time to show me new ways to get complex numbers in the stack ;) But she has just fallen in love with her piano.

That is why the 'freaky pack' (FX82 + book) goes to that son of my friend, who is 11, as my little caveman #1, but with an oposite attitude to effort than my son. The former is really a hard worker. He came with his family from Honduras to Spain 2 years ago, and unfortunately he got the lowest scores in his class in Madrid. But now, one year later, he is the number one in all tests, specially in maths :0) He isn't my boy, but I am sure you agree that determined spirit deserves a little gift.
