GPS is a method of finding your location on the ground using a receiver connected to an orbiting satellite system.

RPN stand for Reverse Polish Notation, and refers to a way to input numbers into a calculator that has no 'equals' button. This is as opposed to Algebraic Notation.

Algebraic: 3 x 4 = [answer]

RPN: 3 enter 4 x [answer]

RPN is much more useful when you are entering numbers in a long equation - useful when writing your own little program.

Your answer: RPN and GPS are two completely unrelated things.
