Op 21 augustus 1888 vraagt William Burroughs octrooi aan op de eerste, commercieel beschikbare rekenmachine.

"Pocket Calculator" is afkomstig van Kraft's achtste studioalbum Computer World (1981).

Wiki schreef:Computer World has been described as a futuristic conceptual work that predicts the presence of computer technology in every day life. Featuring themes such as home computers and digital communication, the album has been seen as both a celebration of computer technology as well as a warning about its potential to exert power on society with social control and digital surveillance. Despite its theme, the production of the album was completely analogue and did not involve any computer technology.

Dit is de 6e RTH van Kraftwerk na:
Ruckzuck (2017) is de openingstrack van hun debuutalbum Kraftwerk (1970)
Autobahn (2009) komt van hun 4e studioalbum Autobahn (1974)
Die Roboter (2012) en The Model (2021) komen van hun 7e studioalbum The Man-Machine (1978)
Tour de France (2014) komt van hun 11e studioalbum Tour de France Soundtracks (2003)
