Alternatives to printout calculators

High peeps,

does anyone know of a calculator that would show on its screen, several lines or more, not just the usual one or two, in a scrollable form, like a printout from a calculator roll. Also,to be able to change any line errors.

Some early pocket calculators with a fold out screen did this, but errors were hard to change without starting again.

You can't really try out todays calculators in store because of the packaging. Thanks for any replies in advance.

    There's probably simpler cheaper ones but I think all graphic calculators I've ever used could do that (one I currently own is Sharp EL9600). But if you're not doing any graphing or calculus or simultaneous equations it's probably overkill. Don't personally have any experience of "normal" calculators able to scroll, but there must be some for office/accounting etc.

    Thanks superscaper

    Its for simple stuff. Its hard to check calculators out in store because of the blister packaging.
