CAS fxcp400

>>8603654
Are those as easy to use as people say?

>>8603651
it doesn't have graphing or CAS, but those are forbidden by the school anyway.
So this was designed to be the best possible with those constraints.
Comfortable to use, you can use pretty print during input, which saves you from a lot of hassling with parentheses.

how's your engineering major going? did they get around to teaching you how to suck multiple cocks at once?

>>8603932
No, sorry, don't have your skills.
So don't worry, your job is safe for now.

That is just fucking retarded. You can get a chink tablet for the same price or cheaper and you'll have far more screen + lots of different functions and internet.

good luck with bringing that to the test

Hello. My name is Simon.

How many times do I need to click this reCAPTCHA box before someone finally speaks with me I wonder. Or hacks me. Or... whatever imaginary fantasy they think will happen to me.

Oh my god! I get it! The smallest distance from any two points must always create a circle! Neurons are circles! And then straight lines!

WooooooooW!

Hello. My name is Simon. I'm getting bored with science pretty quick.

All these are calculators for brainlets. True brainbeasts use a modern PC to solve their problems.

calculator for what?

I use some basic calculator for shit like 105351265/351.

for symnolic operations, mathematica
numerical pretty-problematic shit, matlab

There's nothing wrong with using a calculator on the go, Anon. You expose your own ignorance with such an limited viewpoint.

Glad to see your useless opinion.

>>8603932
okay, leibniz, what the hell is your point? are you too good for a calculator? or do you just do a soft science like biology?

>>8604823
fucking based. of course a full calculator is still needed for other things but this one is great for most things

>>8606249
You only really need a very simple calculator for like 10 bucks for exams etc (more isn't allowed in most cases anyway). For everything else it's much better to use proper software on your laptop or whatever (Mathematica, MATLAB, Python [+numpy, scipy, matplotlib, sympy, pandas etc]). Fiddling on those outdated pieces of trash is ridiculous once you know these tools.

>>8606268
oh, okay I get you now. still, a good calculator can be useful, although I agree that a laptop program is more convenient.

>>8606268
also what do you think of mircrosoft mathematics? it it pleb tier? it is free

I use a ti-89 Titanium hardware v4.
The hardware version is worth mentioning because I got a ti-89 hardware v3 for my birthday when I was 14. I just wanted a ti-83+ but my dad picked the most expensive calculator they had. I used that bad boy(v3) from 9th grade to my last year of college, and then it was stolen from me. I had that calculator for over 10 years. I still feel sad about it. I was able to teach myself some integration and derivatives and check/double check my work with definite and indefinite integrals. I made that poor calculator do so many thousands of calculations. I learned so much.

Anyway, I don't see the point of another calculator, except maybe a ti-inspire cas.

If you enjoyed the 89, a second hand Voyage 200 would probably serve you well.

It's absolutely pleb tier, especially since way more capable alternatives exist that are completely free. Also you should seriously consider to start thinking about what you want to waste your time with. Is it really worth learning to use some obscure, very limited tool that you'll never use ever again? Or isn't it more useful to learn about a tool that looks great on your CV and actually opens up a whole range of possibilities.

>>>8603654
>Are those as easy to use as people say?

Yeah, you have no idea how many times it's saved my ass in tests.

Does everything from simplification to complex solving and can express in every form. Allows you to assign matrices by letters and do advanced problems, even has visual vector functions. Worth every penny

>That is just fucking retarded. You can get a chink tablet for the same price or cheaper and you'll have far more screen + lots of different functions and internet.


Uhuh, yeah I'm going to stick with my "I can check my answers in 2 seconds" calculator that costs $200, over your "second grade tablet that might explode and can't bring into the exam hall"

The cover snaps on which is really nice because it won't slide off.
But after a while it leaves some marks just above the display. They're cosmetic.

which are some good maths programs 2 download 2 me machine?
