What's the best graphing calculator I can buy?
 

I'd like to hear some suggestions. I don't have my eye on anything particular at the moment.

will a laptop with matlab do the job?

Isn't there a phone app out there that can do this stuff?

Texas Instruments TI 84 Plus

There's really no alternative.

There's an app for that these days....

Is a TI-89 still good? That was all the rage back in high school

Cray XC30

I had this monster in college...

You intentionally drew penises?

He did say "monster"

a lot of schools do TI-89

but i would check apps too

Mostly boobs. But it was college.......

Making an exponential growth chart of your gambling losses?

I was forced to learn math because there would be times I would be without my calculator...

My parent never bought us a calculator.

Silver Edition

Two kids in college; both swear by it.

Holy ****. You've spawned?

Two in HS too...are you going to be an ass like your bro, too? :)

:facepalm: Yes.

Why the **** do you need a graphing calculator?

If it’s for taking a class, buy the one the syllabus tells you to.

When I was in college, most people owned TI-30 calculators, but I rolled with the more slim and sleek TI-25. I used that one calculator all through engineering school and beyond.

Don't buy one; use Desmos.

Send me $20 for saving you $100.

I had a TI-89

Used it as a gameboy more than anything. You could save formula's in it, which is what I liked.

I still roll with my HP 41 cx I have had for over 30 years. It confuses the youngsters with its reverse polish notation. It got the Apollo astronauts to the moon and back so good enough for a dumb old surveyor.

I have two HP 11C and a HP35S. In high school my Dad taught me RPN on his HP67 with the red seven segment LED display. I can barely use an AOS calculator anymore

:clap:

Real men use calculators you have to plug into a wall.

Yep rpn was genius it just makes computations so much easier. I had a HP 45 before it got stolen out of my work truck.

TI-89 all the way. Does pretty much anything you need, but not a pain to use for simple stuf too. I’ve had mine for nearly 20 years now so durability is good.

Look what I found in the closet... LOL....

That's an adding machine, Doris. How much was my tuna melt again? Keep the tip.

I think I finally got rid of mine a couple of years ago.

TI-85, brah.

Clearly the pinnacle of 1993 technology still reigns supreme.

Jesus. Stay away from the 200 dollar rube calculators. Jupytor Notebooks and Python are what you're looking for in 2019. And if you're a grown ass nerd you could just get by with Java apache commons math libraries.

Last one I used was a TI-89.

I think they make some new fancy shit called an Nspire.

Either way, go with Texas Instruments.

Wabbitemu let’s you pick your TI model of choice and is completely free. It is available for Windows and IOS. If you have an Android phone you can download it to that as well.

FTR - I rolled with the HP 39g+

The greatest thing about these back in the day was when someone got ahold of games for the TI 85. Even remember one that was some sort of drug dealing sim.

****in nerds
