Publisher's Synopsis
This supplementary text for the standard calculus course focuses on how the HP-28S and the HP-48SX (2 graphing supercalculators) will aid in improving students' understanding of calculus. The calculators are capable of rapid production of graphics and calculations so classes that have access to the machines will save valuable time on graphing and calculations. With supercalculators such as the HP-28S and the HP-48SX, students can focus on true Calculus concepts rather than on computational details.;Special features include: simple and effective programs to improve the manipulation of the HP-28S calculators' graphics; programs are included which run on both the HP-28S and the HP-48SX for most standard numerical algorithms; each set of problems includes an exploratory exercise through which the authors lead the student; the text contains numerous exercises that are both mathematical and applicable in nature.
