Sneaky Pocket Calculator

Description
A sneaky little pocket calculator for almost all of your sneaky calculating needs.

Found in a school basement in Japan, alongside a pile of random electronic junk. The plastic is stamped on one side with "1978", possibly making it one of the first handheld pocket calculators ever invented.

It uses only the coolest numbers between -999 and 9999, and smoothly handles negative numbers and fractions like butter. Only lets you type positive whole numbers though, so maybe that's why it wound up in the basement?

Either way, it's a tiny powerhouse of a calculator. Everything just kinda works the way you'd expect it to. And did I mention it has fancy LEDs that light up when you press certain buttons? This thing was ahead of its time!

Go ahead and give it a whirl. I promise you won't regret it.
