Little Professor


Little Professor was manufactured in 1976 by Texas Instruments.

A reverse calculator of sorts, Little Professor displayed basic arithmetic questions of varying difficulty which the user was to answer using the numeric keypad. A correct answer produced 'RIGHT!' and a new question on the single line LED, while an incorrect answer I think produced 'WRONG!' and the same question. There were 3-4 levels of difficulty in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

  3. I totally forgot that I had this! I actually really liked it even though I was (and still am) useless at math. The Little Professor didn't help all that much.
