...an afterthought. Windows was an "afterthought" to MS-DOS :) At the end of the day I want to see how manypeople really uses algebraic on HP or RPN on TI. I don't have a statistics like that, but I'm willing to bet, that majority of users of ... TI ignore RPN aftermarket software. So for those people it is not an improvement that matters at all. It's available, however. ...
...(however poorly implemented) is detrimental to the HP ? It is an improvement over what it was, but is is not as big improvement as people would like it to belive and it is weaker than native algebraic mode of TI. Similarly TI RPN... on the HP. Both extensions are improvements for those who demand it. At the end of the day I want to see how manypeople really uses algebraic on HP or RPN on TI. ...
... desired outputs and then, maniuplating a handful of equations, coming up with solutions in the form of new equations that exists only on workpad (ok, and many in the solution manual :-) ). Yes but how manypeople are engineers? A tiny minority of potential calculator users. TI is after the much larger market. Tom Lake

I don't know how manypeople bother to count them, but as an (electrical) engineering student I was always trying to come up with ways to complete problems faster. Back in the early '90s when I went to college, many kids didn't have calculators that handled complex numbers or ...
.... If you don't like RPN then TI is a better machine. I know manypeople who hate RPN and don't want anything to do with RPN..., which was built to be algebraic from the day one. Now from the teacher standpoint, why would you want to teach students a notation that is different from the notation... require programmer to free allocated resources. I would love to see MS C++ compiler being used with VCL...
... had to explain that I'd read it from a magazine, and it wasn't real. After hearing many expletives in my ear, I then decided that if I got any other such serious inquiries, from anyone who ..."serving to fill out," from L. explere "fill out," from ex- "out" + plere "to fill" Examples: [It] is his duty to go.

...usenet77@gmail.com began the thread on August 20 by proclaiming: "I had this guy on another forum, saying that the only reason most students use Ti's is due to contracts that Texas Instruments had with the schools. Such as the school would give away some free calculators and supplies and by this the school would have to agree to recommend only Ti calculators. is this true, and if...
