so much nicer than carrying around a giant graphing calculator to do simple multiplication and division in an intro chemistry class.
no graphing here, and the calculus, matrix, and internal physical constants are pretty awkward to remember how to use.
i used the older model 506vb for calculus and statistics classes when i went back to finish my degree several years ago.
when i took my first calculus class in college, i had a graphing calculator that cost about $30.
all the functions you need for pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, calculus and even business.
i have used hp business calculators but have always found that the casio was easier to use.
when in 42s or in 48g is just do 1 +/- sqrt and there are many complex calculus it does not do.
i was disappointed to discover that there were no longer any hp scientific models in this form factor (10c, 11c), only the 12c which unfortunately is a business calculator or other unacceptable
it looks like hp's approach is to sell off all their inventory of calculators as is, defective or not, and then get out of the calculator business.
the feature list on the 33s covers almost all the bases for a wide range of technical disciplines including computer science, all branches of engineering, chemistry and physics.
ordered three for employees who work in the llrw disposal business and they are working awesome.
my co-workers had only a business analyst calculator.
it is the perfect tool if you are in the home loan business and/or a real estate agent.
but this has been a quick learning curve & would be a valuable tool for anyone in the real estate, or the mortgage/lending business.
i purchased this after finding out that the one i had was like learning calculus all over again.
perfect for our construction business needs.
if i were teaching math today- i would urge my students to buy this calculator for algebra, trigonometry, analytic geometry, calculus, and statistics courses.
