HP-32S
The HP-32S was a programmable RPN scientific calculator introduced by Hewlett-Packard in 1988 and discontinued in 1991. It continued the tradition of the HP-11C calculator, as it lacked the higher functions such as matrix calculations and reduced functionality in complex calculations of the highest end HP-15C "Voyager" line. It supported limited complex math, statistics, probability, etc.
