Help!!  I was asked a question that I can't find the answer to and the =
virtual librarian can't even help me.  You're my last hope.=20

Why is the number pad on a telephone arranged with 123 on the top and =
789 on the bottom, while the calculator is arranged with 789 on the top =
and 123 on the bottom.  Is there a reason for each of these =
arrangements?
