Calculator Experiment.... weird experiment that I decided to do.

You can read the full blog post HERE but heres the lowdown.

I'm taking these stupid statewide math tests and I usually finish early. So I decided to press 1+1= and keep hitting = on my calculator. Just to see when the equal button will stop working.

I got to 23,114 after the test and now I'm around 25k.

When do you think it will stop working? I'll keep updating this thread and my blog whenever I get milestones like 100k , 250k, 500k, 750k, 1m, 1.5m, 2m etc

 

Uh, have fun with that.

I predict it'll break at 300k.

 

You'll give up before it breaks lol..

 

I won't give up... I didn't give up at 10k 20k so why should I give up now!

 

That's a very weird experiment.

Just hit 30k w00t! Could've had it a long time ago but I went out to eat XD

 

100k till the paint on the equal button starts chipping 150k till it gets jammed in and breaks

Goodluck to your new found hobby!?! I mean experiment! LOL! Hope you learn a lot from it!

 

Errr...you must be really bored, lol

 

hahha I wont break up and also what is the brand of it, it really depends on the brand and quality...

 

I don't want to lose my mouse

 

hahhah Keep on experimenting !

have fun with that hobby !!!

 

And finally I want to ask something, Why would you like to do something like that? I don't understand , you waste your time only you can not break the button you will leave it soon I think....

 

I'm at 41k atm just got back from a track meet.

Also, if you looked at the blog post its a Senario SC-121 Scientific 10+2 calculator!

 

When the batteries you first put in the first time you used it die. Which shouldn't be too long from now.

 

It will stop working along with your calculator as soon as the batteries run out/display dies/you hit it too hard/you spill water on it/aliens invade the earth.

it depends upon how many digit calculator you use

 

If your calculator is a 12-digit calculator, it might stop working when it reaches 999,999,999,999 + 1.

Just a thought... I don't think it'll stop working unless it cannot solve the equation anymore.

If you're talking about battery life, it depends on the brand and the battery.

Good luck with that!

 

Never try to find an end to infinity...
There are people who wasted their whole life, finding the solution to infinity...

 

Its a ten digit calculator plus 2 little ones at the top for scientific notation. Also If the battery runs out it has a solar panel so I can put in another one! I'm around 75k now
