The death of calculator market?

[pier4r]

This is a recurring topic, with or without covid.

Students that are barely interested substituted calculators with computers and smartphones long ago (aside from exams), it is nothing new.

But as long as no tacticle feedback is provided, the input interface of a calculator is always more usable than a touchscreen/computer/tablet for those that click several times on the keyboard.

Of course one can say "but a computer keyboard is great". Sure it is. Only I was thinking the case that one is writing on paper, thus having to move the head up and down to look at the screen is not very healthy. Therefore a monitor is out. What remains, on the same plane as paper, are smartphones, tablets, calculators and the last one has the better input for the moment.
