Compared
with the early Little Professor with the LED display this one uses a LCD to ask
the child one of thousands pre-programmed math questions.
From the technology this Little Professor from 1982 is similar
to the TI-35 calculator of the same
time frame but uses a membrane keyboard. In the United Kingdom a version with
traditional keyboard appeared, view it here.
This Little Professor manufactured 1982 looks very similar to
the version Little Professor (1985) with a
black-red background.
