Actually, after I bought the calculator, I fell in love with the virtual application of it on windows, the letter input becomes so efficient.

I had too much time invested in my 50g to even consider the prime. I wrote a tonne of programs for it. One program I wrote was designing concrete beams and converging to an appropriate solution, complete with menus and error checking.😊 I also had preprogrammed load cases saved & used the numeric solver to determine any variable. These days it's mostly excel and my 50g is barely used.

Awesome video!

Very cool!

This is where, the document-based system of "TI Nspire CX CAS" is the more superior. Each document is its own isolated compartment of mini-programs, constants, formulas etc. You can also create then expose common formulas into a publicly accessible list. And because it is document-based, you can shared the document (it is just a file) with others and they will have your compartmentalized/specialist mini formulas, mini-programs under that document.

Nice... may you show us your programs?

Hi Tonny, Can I have a question about the setting? When I input a fraction, the Entry Line only shows 1 line. For example, it shows 9/3 (exactly like this). It displays like another cheap calculator. Hard to see in complex math. Is this something I have to do with the setting display? Thank you so much.
