  1. The Calculator andYOU!!

  2. The Calculator is a wonderful tool but sometimes…

  3. you want to kick the stuff’n out of it!

  4. Welcome to the Tutorial CenterCalculator Workshop • A calculator is only as smart as the user! • The calculator can only do what YOU know how to do! • It isn’t a cure-all for everything!!! • “They will walk 5 miles to ride a horse one mile.” • Sometimes it is just easier and faster to do the “long-way”

  5. Where to Get Help • Manual • Online Manual • Tutorial Center • Instructors • Friends • Nerds tied up in your basement

  6. Common Calculator Issues • Order of Operations • Data Input • Modes • Graphing

  7. Common Calculator Issues • Order of Operations • Data Input • Modes • Graphing

  8. Order of Operations • Algebraic (all modern calculators) • Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally • () ^ x / + - • RPN (HP only) and Stack Manipulation • Faster Input • Steep Learning Curve (only your basement nerd probably knows how to use it)

  9. Algebraic Entry Solve for f(3)…

  10. Algebraic Entry Store 3 into x 3 STO x Type in eqn just as you see it!

  11. Algebraic Entry Store 3 into x Type in just as you see it?

  12. Algebraic Entry Store 3 into x Type in just as you see it? Well, ignore the f(x)…

  13. Algebraic Entry
