Show me a highschool math problem you can't do on a $12 Casio scientific like the classic FX-300MS https://www.usaofficemachines.com/csofx300ms-fx-300ms-scient...

There's even knockoffs of it for $1: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256809744184708.html

I picked one up when the 99 cent store was shutting down. It works fine.

Look what you can get for $20: https://www.casio.com/intl/scientific-calculators/product.FX...

TI is like the Intuit of the education world. I want to love them but this is ridiculous - a N4120 celeron laptop is the same price as this new calculator - it might be a garbage laptop but it's doing a heck of a lot more for your $160 than this calculator is.
