@tothemyers, actually, it is not in any way better. The old display can display the same things, (other than some symbols) and its much eaiser to read. Calculators only need numbers, so since the old display is much eaiser to read, its the same as the display in a digital watch, we use it for things that display numbers.
1. Why don't they use this is calculators? A 55 segment display is much better than the older more bulky ones! 2. One segment isn't used whatsoever.
this is cool. Is there anyway to fix the 'j' though? It looks kind of funny
luik147 - No, I've made this work since three weeks ago. And I don't need the locking system.
aws at once = transformers
i like it cause you can make cool symbols if you press two buttons at the same time.
It's really just a 53-segment display since there are 2 sectors which will never be lit be any key pressed...
