When I first came to the university, I bought a high end calculator: a TI-89. And then at my first pre-calculus test, my professor told me I couldn’t use it for the tests. So I went out and bought a TI-86, figuring I could use the 89 for calculus the next semester. Well, I couldn’t. so I had to sell that one. Are you keeping track? This is 2 calculators so far. But wait, my economics classes don’t allow programmable calculators, so I needed a TI solar model. Well then I was set. Oh no I wasn’t… Managerial Accounting doesn’t even allow that! “Go out and buy a $5 four-function calculator” my professor says. $5 isn’t a lot… but FOUR calculators? I can’t wait until I’m done with math courses.
