Paragon Mathematics: The Basics- HP Prime

Published 2021-01-15
This video's a little bit different than the usual videos- I tried to cover some important mechanics and functions of the HP Prime, my calculator of choice.

  • wish I had this in secondary school maths in the early ‘70s. The HP Prime costs around $250, in 1975 the HP65 or HP67 cost about $1000, a good fraction of the cost of a car. My salary was about $5200 a year. Now Copilot can write the progam.

    Hi I just wanna mention that for conversions you can type in your amount, then press the unit button and select your unit, then press sto and then the unit button again to select what you want to convert into.

    Nicely explained thank you 👍 The G2 Prime is a great calculator 👌
  • @TheAmbasador99
    Using this technology is actively more challanging than the math that they are giving me
  • If I wanted to find out an exponential function, for example: 56 grams of yeast grow at a constant rate of Lambda 0,3667 and the question is how much it would grow in 5 days, how would I need to type it?

    great video! just switched over from a TI-84 plus CE and was finding the transition a little difficult.

    I think it's worth mentioning that you can just hit solve. I don't know if I'm the only one but it seems strange to try parse a value when the equation has an answer. Thanks for a great video.

    Do you have a download link for the HP prime desktop emulator? I hear that it originally was free for windows but I cant find it from any official HP documentations.
  • Hey man, how do you use the explorer app to solve quadratic with a table of values? Since my HP prime does not have quadratic solver in the apps, just the explorer app.
  • @deadstar962
    Nice vid. Maybe I would’ve passed my class if I had this calculator with that nifty conversion feature 😅 but how do you kno how to use these programs? Are there instructions in the Manual for each one ?
  • @technics6215
    Is it possible to store equations somewhere and restore them later? I want to use it for engineering.
  • @powertube5671
    On the second equation I hit "plot" and get the error "Check exactly one equation." How do you get the second plot without the first getting erased?
  • @technics6215
    Is it possible to configure it for units like micro, milli, kilo, mega, etc. like in Casio FX?
