Jumbo Computer Electro 1001

The Electro 1001 was a large, desktop-sized calculator that featured a red LED display and a series of buttons and switches for inputting and manipulating data. It was powered by a plug-in power supply and had a small built-in speaker for audio feedback. The calculator was designed for simple arithmetic calculations and did not have the capability to run more advanced functions such as scientific notation, trigonometric functions, or graphing.

One unique feature of the Electro 1001 was its ability to store up to 99 intermediate results in memory, allowing users to perform complex calculations without having to write down intermediate values. The device also had a unique "transfer" function that allowed users to move data between registers, making it easier to perform calculations involving multiple values.

While the Electro 1001 was primarily an electronic calculator, some educational software was developed for the device, including a quiz program called "Quiz Elektronik." The program would ask multiple-choice questions, and users would input their answers using the calculator's numeric keypad. The program would then provide feedback on whether the answer was correct or incorrect.
