Just use embulator

I need something appropriate for a class room setting.

I've got the TI Nspire CX CAS. It's bretty gud. Just don't use the touchpad cursor thing, it's pretty useless except for shifting function names around on the graphs. Buttons are faster. As with all calculators, get used to the buttons and it's a fine calculator.

If you are going to a real uni, no one will care. Putting your phone in airplane mode and using an empanadulator should be fine with the professor.

>>8279068
Great calculator, hands down.

Not cheap. Not cheap at all. Its more expensive than the TI-83

Try getting a used calculator.

If money's an issue, eBay. I just bought it new because it'd serve me well all through uni and into a job

>>8279081
Every Ti-83/84 is trash below $50 on Amazon and Ebay, used.

Is there anything around $20 thats better than a fucked up TI-83?

>>8279086
What is "it" ?

>>8279089
The calculator I own.

>>8279116
the one between my ears

>>8279069
instructor here. Definitely not ok with that. Because you could very well take it out of airplane mode. Shit, you could have the damn textbook on your phone.

Honestly, we are probably going to have to ban graphing calculators. Eventually, the chinese are going to make a smart phone that looks just like a graphing calculator.

>>8279068
Shit, we already have graphing calculators with touchscreens. The chinese could fucking do it.

I don't see your point. Are you hating the touchpad cursor? I don't like it either. But the calculator itself is a good one. Its display makes it very accessible but it has plenty of functions and capabilities that give it depth.

Just get a scientific.

Casio FX 991ex Classwiz
