Ironically, the TI-36x pro might be the exception. It’s probably the best calculator for its purpose and shelves at around fifteen dollars
Texas Instruments Graphing calculators are for brainlet fucking retards with money to burn.

>>9696713
This guy speaks the truth.
Don't care much for calculators, but this one was well worth my money. In the end, I was actually glad I had to replace my calculator.

>>9696713
This is the best calculator.

>>9696713
>>9696724
had to have some kind of TI calculator in high school
got the nspire for cheap, had all the calculations for stats and calc, still use it from time to time
I guess if you get jewed for sticker price like school districts and people buying when school supply shopping it does blow, but the jews hit you even harder on analytics software when there are FOSS alternatives

>>9696691
the n-spire because you can easily write down notes and shit on it to cheat

the iPhone 8

Lots of fellas here hate on TI but my TI86 titanium is literally a godsend for doing iterated integrals and the such.

>>9697223
Why not just use Maple/Matlab/Mathematica/SymPy?

>>9696691
>>9696692

truly the most aesthetic calculator

>>9697275
great idea, take that to a school math test and come back and tell us how it went

>>9696691
>he needs a calculator

this is a great calculator. I inherited mine from my dad. he died.

>>9697561
RPN master race

>>9696713
TI-89 Titanium? It's literally an EE students bible.

>>9697560
Your gonna use the power series of sin and cosin to find those values?

>>9697682
>not MATLAB

>>9696691
Your phone's and pic related.
Anything else is trash and a waste of money.

>>9697846
I know you are either a Pajeet or Chang, but despite the Professor not giving a shit that your kind cheat on exams, the rest of the students are not allowed to use phones during them.

>>9697851
You have to complete school to post here.

>>9697851
I have pretty much finished my math degree and we used a calculator on exams like two or three times in total.
And it was just to do simple arithmetic.

>>9697852
>undergrad board
>mad undergrads are here

>>9696691
Whatever costs the least and exponentiates/roots. If i want to graph, my smartphone or conputer is much better suited and much easier to learn.

>>9697691
>the brainlet doesn't know how to use a slide rule

>>9697688
It saved my ass more than a few times. I use the emulator on my android phone, it's by far the best calculator for android.

Take the guts out of a ti84 and put the ti89 guts inside. I read along time ago this was possible.

>>9698218
>implying they even sell those things anymore

>>9696691
All other answers are objectively wrong.

>>9696691
Are these things actually used nowadays? I've left school in 2003, and even we stopped using them years before that.

>>9699052
Nigger what? Did you do mental math with big numbers? How did you compute trigonometric functions without a calculator?

>>9699052
Nah, we use out phones now. We just have to pledge a scout's honor we won't look up the answers on the internet.

>>9696713
This.

>>9697561
Fuck my dad has been using this since before I was born. I always thought it was so cool when I was a kid.

>>9696741

>CAS calculator on school test
lel, no.

What is a good calculator for math tests

>>9700323
see >>9699047

HP Prime

>>9696741
I have this clavulator

Will last until the end of time, have been using this for 12 years

>calls anon out for using a calculator
>uses slide rule
>Thinks because he uses a mechanical calculator, he is somehow less of a brainlet

If your going to be that neckbeard who whips out his slide rule at Autismo-corp llc, just so you can feed off the menial attention garnered from such pretentious novelties, you should start investing in some robes to go with your wand.

Might even become as great of a wizard as Nikola Tesla, minus the scientific achievement tho

>Inb4 have to drop the class, faced with an average of 58% with no sight of a curve

That calculator is a succubus. It'll drain your mathematical competency the more you rely on it

>>9702265
The only thing good about those calculators is that they can store complex EE and ME equations and it is easier to do matrices with them.

the HP50g is the greatest calculator ever made

>>9701765
>I'm used to one thing so everything else is objectively bad

>>9696741
I have the next model. Looks better.

Rpn notation is shit.

>>9702314
>Rpn notation is shit.

>>9702316
Fight me.

>>9696741
I own one. It doesn't do complex matrices and the limit of 3x3 matrices is very disappointing. Otherwise, it's very good.

>>9696691
My nigga

>>9699052
That model came out in 2011

Stop being a brainlet and install Maxima http://maxima.sourceforge.net/

>License GPL

Fuck no.

>>9702265
>>9702272
so how does one use it without getting to relying on it?

>>9702996
our teacher showed us this calc some time ago
desu it's really not intuative and very confusing
if you want to go for a modern graphic calculator you better get yourself a TI-nspire cx

>>9702996
yea but is it CAS?

>>9703471
Professor promotes using a ti-89 but will not give any points even with the right answer unless you show step by step. This is a physics (electromagnetism) class btw not math.

>>9703475
>desu it's really not intuative and very confusing

How? Was it RPN?

>>9702294
This one?

Get on my level faggots

>>9703628
>gimped version of the fx115es plus without solar power or numerical calculus functions
>$5 more expensive than the fx115es+

Why does this exist?

>>9703628
>not having a solar panel version
Pathetic

Hi every niggas!

>>9703745
>fx-jp
>shit english
hello shinji!

>>9703344
I guess you prefer to pay for software of less quality. Fucking kys.

>>9696691
Mathematica for your symbolic shit
Matlab for tricky problems
Casio fx-115ES PLUS for everything else

>>9697559
You won't be in school forever

>>9697849
That's the one I use, pretty good, surprisingly so.
I've tried to replace it with phone apps but their layout is retarded for what I need it

>>9703605
maybe I was biased because I'm really used to using my non-cas ti nspire cx
it felt weird, like a cheap chinese smartphone, wasn't pleasant to use really

>>9702314
Brainlet
And race cars should have automatic gearbox, right?

>>9703856
Do you enjoy shoving shards of glass up your ass?

>>9700478
Ayy same
I’ve had mine for 10 years, I swear these things are nearly indestructible

>>9696691
>Current year
>Not having the best calculator ever made
It's like you plebs don't even like to maths.

I've had an 84 for years, and it hasn't failed me yet. It doesn't have integration calculation, but what kind of brainlet uses a calc to do integration?

>>9703753
BSD with American Freedom >>> Viral Communism

>>9703750
Apparently it's better
