Through this Guide, learn how to use your HP Prime calculator or Apple, Android, Window app to help you learn Algebra. This Guide covers your device, whether you have the handheld calculator or iPhone, iPad, Android Phone, Android Tablet, Chromebook, or Window Tablet Free or Pro app.The Guide starts with basic Algebra rules and progresses to how Algebra rules are used in Calculus. You can readily use this Guide if you are in Pre-Algebra, Algebra I, Introductory Algebra, Algebra II, Intermediate Algebra, College Algebra, Precalculus or any higher course where Algebra is a prerequisite.The calculator¿s screens are used in the introduction of a new topic. The nice thing is the app¿s screen and interface is identical to the calculator.Through its examples and its accompanying exercise, this guide provides a Rosetta Stone effect with the language of math. Each example and its quick-check interactive exercise show both the HP Prime and the traditional step-by-step solution.A powerful feature that you will want to learn is the creation of global libraries and Application Library apps. This Guide illustrates the steps needed for creating a global library or Application Library app and using the library¿s commands or the Application Library app¿s features.Global libraries and this Guide¿s technique allow you to define a single or multiple one-line functions on a page. Global one-line functions can be any formula found in a book, new tool commands, or a set of functions that help with the understanding of complex math concepts. There are examples of all of these in this Guide.Learn how to create and run both kinds of Application Library apps, Ones that run from the Application Library screens and ones that run from the Home view or CAS view.Use this Guide and the HP Prime CAS technology to submit assignments that are error free. When you happen to have difficulties with a step, you can use your HP Prime CAS device to help you work that step until you master it.

An approachable, hands-on guide to understanding how computers work, from low-level circuits to high-level code. How Computers Really Work is a hands-on guide to the computing ecosystem: everything from circuits to memory and clock signals, machine code, programming languages, operating systems, and the internet. But you won't just read about these concepts, you'll test your knowledge with exercises, and practice what you learn with 41 optional hands-on projects. Build digital circuits, craft a guessing game, convert decimal numbers to binary, examine virtual memory usage, run your own web server, and more. Explore concepts like how to: Think like a software engineer as you use data to describe a real world concept Use Ohm's and Kirchhoff's laws to analyze an electrical circuit Think like a computer as you practice binary addition and execute a program in your mind, step-by-step The book's projects will have you translate your learning into action, as you: Learn how to use a multimeter to measure resistance, current, and voltage Build a half adder to see how logical operations in hardware can be combined to perform useful functions Write a program in assembly language, then examine the resulting machine code Learn to use a debugger, disassemble code, and hack a program to change its behavior without changing the source code Use a port scanner to see which internet ports your computer has open Run your own server and get a solid crash course on how the web works And since a picture is worth a thousand bytes, chapters are filled with detailed diagrams and illustrations to help clarify technical complexities. Requirements: The projects require a variety of hardware - electronics projects need a breadboard, power supply, and various circuit components; software projects are performed on a Raspberry Pi. Appendix B contains a complete list. Even if you skip the projects, the book's major concepts are clearly presented in the main text.

iPads are powerful tools for engaging students, encouraging creativity, stimulating critical thinking, and making significant strides in learning. This book is part of a two-book set that allows educators to realize the full potential of the iPad. Over 200 highly rated apps are covered with specific ideas for classroom activities and teaching strategies. Descriptions include ideas for using iPads in classrooms where each student owns an iPad, as well as where there is just a small number of iPads or even just a single device. The first chapter of this book specifically discusses how to promote discovery learning, engagement, understanding, and creativity in ways that enhance the learning experience of all students. Each subsequent chapter is dedicated to apps that have value to the following subject areas: mathematics, science, art, music, health and PE, ELL, and ESL. In consideration of education budgets, all the apps are free or low cost. The information in this book is appropriate for K12 teachers, university professors, media specialists, K12 administrators, parents, and students.

This book is designed to be a vital companion to math textbooks covering the topics of precalculus, calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, and probability and statistics. While these existing textbooks focus mainly on solving mathematic problems using the old paper-and-pencil method, this book teaches how to solve these problems using Maxima open-source software. Maxima is a system for the manipulation of symbolic and numerical expressions, including differentiation, integration, Taylor series, Laplace transforms, ordinary differential equations, systems of linear equations, polynomials, sets, lists, vectors, and matrices. One of the benefits of using Maxima to solve mathematics problems is the immediacy with which it produces answers. Investing in learning Maxima now will pay off in the future, particularly for students and beginning professionals in mathematics, science, and engineering. The volume will help readers to apply nearly all of the Maxima skills discussed here to future courses and research.

Python for the TI-Nspire CX II technology calculator is a collection of real-world Python programs written explicitly for this device. Because of the nature of Python, these programs are short, easy to read, easy to enter into the calculator, and most importantly easy to understand - even for beginners. Why Python? Python is the world's most popular programming language. It is an ideal language for handheld calculators. The Python programming language is non-proprietary, so it runs everywhere, even on desktop and laptop computers with only minor modifications from what you'll find in this book, and even then only in a very few cases. Python handles number crunching well, and with its lists, strings, and other data structures, it powerfully handles a very wide variety of programming tasks. But perhaps the biggest advantage of learning Python via your programmable calculator is that this knowledge will be applicable and useful no matter what computers or systems you might work with in the future. Learn it once and you'll have a new life skill of great value. The TI-Nspire CX II technology calculator is a very powerful learning tool, and with the addition of Python its mind-expanding capabilites are truly awesome!
