Overview
Not a graphing calculator but a basic scientific one with a single line of display and a plastic enclosure. It covers fractions, one-variable statistics, unit conversions and the basic scientific and trigonometric functions.
A simple keypad and a short list of functions cover most school math through algebra and general science. The limit is the display: one line shows one entry at a time, so multi-step work cannot be reviewed on screen.
Who it's for
Middle and high school students, and anyone doing algebra-level work, get fraction and statistics functions in a small unit. Students in calculus or advanced statistics, or any course that needs graphs, need a different calculator.
Pros and cons
- One year limited warranty
- One-line display only
- Single-variable statistics only
Performance notes
A single-line display shows one entry or result at a time, so the user steps through calculations in order. The built-in fraction, conversion and statistics functions handle the typical coursework listed in the description.
