Quoted: I learned multivariable calculus in Calc 4. How have you gone through three semesters of calculus without getting a calculus solving calculator or software?

When I studied Calculus, we did a 5-5-3 semester hour scheme, and III was multivariable. It wasn't that many years ago..

Yes it was. I am in denial.
Anyway, we weren't allowed the use of calculators. We were allowed to use the CRC math tables in III, however. My professor (had the same prof for I, II, III and DE) always had this at the top of every quiz and test...
LRIEF (to keep people from giving him grief about the calculator issue.. and to possibly catch someone using on during an examination), SAWFCC, SR --- Leave results in exact form, show all work for complete credit and simplify results.
He was kind of hard core I suppose, but I think probably one of the best professors I ever studied under.
Back then, I'm not sure there were any TI graphic calculators available. Maybe the TI 81. We had HPs, by gosh. I've fondled many a calculator over the years, but I still love HPs.
Anyway.... I'll shut up with my flashback. As y'all were.
