Yeah, in a world of MATLAB I don't see the point (outside of schools) in a graphing calculator.
Maybe she was a 48G?OH! I love this game! "Which of these doesn't belong?" Hmm....
You can pry my TI-83+ from my cold dead hands.
LAME

Fuck you elitist RPN people. Why can't you do it the way regular people with their regular calculators do it?
Great, I need one. Will you ship it for free? :awe:
It stands for "reverse polish notation" and it is a different method of inserting data into calculators. Rather than typing A * B = you would type A B * =. It becomes more useful with larger expressions as it ensures that operators are performed in the correct order. For example if you have
A B C - *
The equivalent for a non RPN calculator would be
A * (B - C)
I see, that looks sort of confusing. Thankfully I'm not a math major so I'll just dock this away in memory. :awe:
You're lame! Mine's in 3D. Yours looks like something that ran on Windows 95
Always was a fan of RPN so I bought this:
Should be here Tuesday.
They have different tool kits and certain things are easier on one than the other. It just depends on what you are using it for most often. For instance, Matlab tends to be used by EEs.why
MathWorks MATLAB of Natick, MA
instead of
Wolfram Research Mathematica of Champaign, IL
?
I suspect Mathematica is the more powerful between them
Wow, didn't know that HP still made calculators. Awesome!
Still have my 48SX bought during college (around end of 1991 or start of 92). Bought it from Service Merchandise (now closed down).
Total side note, but wasn't Service Merchandise the shit? You'd walk around and pick something, and it'd shoot out on a conveyor belt form the mystical back room. Awesome place.

I don't think you'll have any worries
TI's are OK, but RPN does the trick for me. My daughter uses a '83 I believe.
