What is the favourite or best Scientific calculator use by NA and designer?

CASIO fx-9860G SD

I found this powerful calculator very useful, it can split screen for graph and do almost everything including finacial calculation. The big plus is you can use your 1 gig SD memory card to store your computation and formular.

Looks expensive. USB inteface on a calcuator? Whatever floats your boat... got a model # for us?

 

CASIO fx-9860G SD

This calculator work on batteries, have external electric cable hole, USB cable included, SD memory slot without a card.

The model is CASIO fx- 9860G SD.Price I bought at around US$90. check it out internet google.

I have just bought this a month ago for my studies and still playing with it. I am hooked to its financial capabalitity to count cost and bank, with preprogrammed equation.

It has two version, fx- 9860G without SD but faster, fx- 9860G SD with ext. memory .

Budget

Westlawn,

You told me u were broke buying all your stuff, i understand now, although the CASIO fx-9860G SD really was a bargain (where did you finnd it for that price?) You obviously own a computer and could have saved yourself this expence (see No3 reply in this post).

 

Yes, when your at the drafting table or out on a cafe table discussion and fight on the size of the boat do you bring a notebk or a calculator? I imagine I will have field work and project later on with my CASIO brain.

I was searching for HP outlet and found a CASIO instead, the market is like 9:1 over Casio : HP. I look for the type with the memory freedom model.

I dont know European market. Try the biggest shop you can find that is not in a MALL.

 

I need it !

Hi !

Could you tell me where can I but it ?
I'm looking for it in internet but I can't find it to buy in the States.
Thanks.

Adrián.

 

In Asia it cost in distributor sale at US$100 without delivery. I know this is fresh from the oven model, I too can find the site just from the shop in my country's capital, I am living isolated area.

Just a Question Guys

Just lets say I bought one of these fandangle you beaut calculators which does all these things, do you still need a sound background in maths that is required to complete any design course on offer?

Yup. Calculator's dead useless without the knowledge that tells you what to put into it, and what to make of what it spits out.
