Post calulators. I got my retard mitts on a ti84 evo today.
>>108831538I modded my Casio FX with esp32, wifi, camera and mini OLED screen on the solar part, only a photo and I get the replies from gpt in a format ready to write on paper

i dont have a calculator
>>108833134pics or it didn't happen
I use LibreOffice Calc whenever I just wanna do some quick calculations.
I just learned yesterday that Americans are never taught how to use calculators with CAS. Like, they are prohibited from using them in school on purpose.
>>108831538Find a flaw
I just open a new xterm and run python3.If I don't reboot every month I literally run out of X11 window handles.
>>108831756>>108833077>>108833168>>108833429Jamboys who can't afford a real calculator.
>>108834021Honorable mention.
>>108831538It’s all we ever needed.
>>108831538post mitts
>>108831538Man if the batteries weren't dead I'd show you some cool shit.>>108833381Speak for yourself
>>108834021no need for anything new when the majority of the originals are still working fine and only have to change the batteries every 25 years whether they need it or not
>>108831538What the fuck is THAT abomination? I must be getting old becuase the idea of a fucking calculator having a backlit display and little app tiles is offensive to me. Is this what kids are learning to math on? That might explain why thrift stores have been cramming full of TI-84 Pluses these days. I sold a few on Ebay for 20 bucks.>>108834103Those are awesome for self-study and use, but the problem is you can't use them on tests and they ate batteries like a motherfucker. I think the one I had took 4 AAs.Anyway, my workhorse calculator is a TI-30XS. It's the true calculator for somebody who needs to sneak some more features into a mathematics class, even where the professor doesn't you graphing shit. It can still run basic tables and advanced statistics and has this nice mathprint feature that lets you stack up complex formulas. I remember running fractions on fractions with it for economics class in college.
>>108831538>pull this out in class>get sent to the principal's office
Don't
dropped, smashed, fell in a pond, held together with tape, turned 38 years old this month and still works
>>108831538no israeli bombs inside this baby
>>108833381Nonsense, I had an 89 titanium through college
>>108834377No you don't, it's a TI-83/84 family calculator, it's designed for middle to high school classroom use. If I'm not mistaken that one also has a "test" mode that locks it down so you can't open apps and text files and whatnot that you might have installed, to prevent cheating on a test.
The most interesting calculators I have are a CX3 and an E6-B whiz wheel.An online simulator of what the CX3 can do.https://prepware.com/cx3e/index.htmland the whiz wheel.https://mediafiles.aero.und.edu/aero.und.edu/aviation/trainers/e6b/?q=sliderule
>>108831538For me it's the TI 89
Have an 89,g prime and a 51X
TI-89 TI was the GOAT.

>>108831538Use case for physical calculators in 2020+6?Jokes aside, why would I use a calculator when every time I have to calculate something I need to do linear programming, solving integrals or differential equations? Matlab or Python is what professional uses nowadays, for everything else in between there's the phone calculator.
Ti nspire cx cas, i like it
>>108833285I'm not a phone poster, sorry mate, use your imaginationnor think it didn't happened.
>>108834021Performative cuck if you own anything more than a dirt cheap Casio scientific calculator they forced you to have at school.
>phone this phone thatNu-/g/ will never even begin to understand the true power of a 20 year old programmable RPN calculator.Had a calculus2 exam on eg taylor polys and series. I programmed my HP50g to automate the whole process in its entirety, I just need to store the equation and the a-point to a variable. Then I just tap a button for how many degrees of approximation I want. And at any point I can get the intermediate values (nth order derivative and the evaluation of it) with another button, so I can write them down on the exam paper to pretend I did it manually. And then I can plot both equations to see things look right. Here's the reverse polish lisp:init:<< Y Y DERVX A 'X' STO EVAL SWAP EVAL SWAP 'X' PURGE X A - * + 1 'n' STO Y DERVX 'dx' STO >>step:<< dx DERVX 'dx' STO n 1 + 'n' STO dxslv n ! / EVAL X A - N ^ * >>dxslv:<< dx A 'X' STO EVAL 'X' PURGE >>This thing is like the Unix of calculators, except with 20x the schizo engineer energy. A tool from a more civilized, competent age.
my baby still works
>>108831538i have a ti-84 plus ce python. fuck ti for removing the ability to program in assembly language without jailbreaks. also why is some french site the biggest website for ti calculator resources? i'm talking about tiplanet.org
>>108835887i like having a calculator near me. i guess it's a safety blanket. anyone can open up a python/matlab/octave repl. calculators are comfy.
>>108836254>claims to not be a phone poster>makes a phone poster typo
>>108834103Voyage 200 here. Ti-89 is a shit.I have both, Ti-89 is borderline unreadable. Not just the size but something about the LCD panel reflections are just ass. My Ti-83 and Voyage-200 displays are perfectly visible.
>>108837552I had an 89 in highschool and it was based, but this was over 20 years ago.
>>108831538I really miss my HP-50G. I'd really like to snag one but they're so fucking expensive. Mine broke though and I have no clue how I'd fix it or who could.
>>108836687> reverse polish lispIt’s basically “Forth” but yeah, i never heard of anyone describe it as rpn lisp… that’s pretty accurate.
>>108834399All hail the king
>>108837552>>108837566I also have the Nspire CX but that is as much as it deserves for mention. Barely lives through the day with a single charge and if I didn't start the boot up 10 minutes before class I would be left behind. At least the backlight helped a lot during the exams in college where the big auditorium lights were ass even on the Ti-83.Another mention is the Sharp PC-E220 which was a portable ZX-80 computer with Basic and some cool engineering apps preloaded in the Rom. I have the printer for it as well.
>>108834399i used to have an orange one of these but lost it in a move. i miss that lil nigga like you don't even know.
>>108834399absolute trash.buttons only half registeralso sovl
>>108836687Absolutely based. Reminds me of my stats II class I had with just a Ti-83. I figured out how to cheese the tabling system and using nothing but native functions in the calculator I was done with the exam in twenty minutes. I spent the rest of the exam checking my work and then left 15 mins early.
Guys should I get a PicoCalc?I like the idea of doing DSAs in bed.t.dont own a calculator nor have experience with microcontrollers.
Just a few...
should I get a 991ES Plus 2nd gen or 991CW? 991EX or 9910CW aren't available for me.
>>108836687In my country, they force you to do everything by hand. Calculators are for pussies.
>>108839483For elementary schools, yes. But in university most calculations are so convoluted and tasks get so complicated that hand calculations take up too much time and present a great risk for mistakes. Plus in today's engineering tasks if your country forces hand calculations then your country is most definitely on a much lower level than today's average here in the developed world. Having a calculator and using the higher level scientific functions is a prerequisite for most classes, having knowledge to do programs and automating functions is encouraged. This doesn't mean we can't do manual calculations but on a 10 problem exam you will only finish the first two maybe in the time limit if you don't use a calculator. Hell I specifically got a calculator with backlight display so I don't have to waste time squinting trying to read the LCD display in the shit glarefest fluorescent lighting in most of the auditoriums and classrooms. And no the new LED panels are not much better.
>>108839483I can respect that yes, I wish I had that kind of education background. But I just don't. And I don't have the self-discipline to force myself, my programmer instincts tell me to automate if possible.In a funny way this calculator is also in large part what motivates me to study math. It's one of those old school poweruser gadgets you can study for a decade before truly mastering. It's infinitely intriguing to get to use it. Math homework for me is all about figuring out how to best automate it all with my calculator, what new exciting tools and features will I learn about this time? It's such a joy, tickles my autism just in the right way.
>>108837500I accept your concession.
>>108834399That thing has awful buttons
>>108833429doesn’t do units
>>108831538unironically though what is the best calculator app that works on Mac? I have a ti-84 CE and ti-89 titanium that do the trick, but so often it would be faster and more convenient to just use my computerthe standard Mac calculator is okay but requires the mouse often and you can't edit mid-equation
redpill me on calculators, what do you actually do that you need them?
>>108841093Soulver (pic related) and the venerable PCalc and also numbat>>108841262lift (pic related)
You guys are a bunch of nerds.
>>108835940ive had my ti nspire since highschool and i still use it today sometimes, its such a nice calculator although recently ive been using matlab/octave for calculations primarily it makes me feel a bit bad for it...

>>108834021>real calculatorGet on my level
>>108834887I dont have a real need for it, but I might pick up ones of the Prime G2s just to check it out, I should dig out my old TI-85 I had back in the day for comparison
many maths class doom lvl 1 speedrun tournaments were powered by this unit
