This project introduces a console application designed for functional emulation of the USA old calculator series Wang 700 and their USSR derivatives 15VSM (15ВСМ). The main goal of the project is emulation of those models made in Soviet Union: 15ВСМ-5, 15ВМ16/32/128 - which are also known as D3-28 (Д3-28). The choice of them is due to the extremely strong and authentic CPU command set developed by Soviet engineers as a superset around the original Wang 700's command set. While Wang 700 were just programmable calculators, Soviet machines were almost complete computers taking into account their advanced CPU command set, huge RAM volume, ability to work with wide set of peripheral devices including the video terminal 15IE (15ИЭ) and existence of BASIC and other programming languages written as loadable applications. Still I consider them as calculators also due to some aspects exclusively specific to calculators. The project is intended for research and education purposes.
