The '''HP42s''' is a high-end RPN calculator in the HP Pioneer line. Launched in 1988, It was originally meant as a [[HP 41C]] replacement and thus had FOCAL compatibility, capable of running most HP 41C programs with little modification. However it was hampered in this role due to its lack of extensions and limited I/O capabilities, and was discontinued early (as compared to [[HP 17B]]) in favour of [[HP 48SX]] in 1995. | The '''HP42s''' is a high-end RPN calculator in the HP Pioneer line.
