چکیده
Perhaps the most obvious myth is that graphics calculators are mainly useful for drawing graphs of functions and hence are not relevant to most mathematics curricula. An hour or two with a modern graphics calculator will quickly dispel this myth. For example, my book, More mathematics with a graphics calculator: Casio cfx-9850G, contains sixteen chapters, only four of which are primarily concerned with graphing. Many other aspects of mathematics, including solving equations, data analysis, random simulation, sequences and series, iteration, matrices, complex numbers, differentiation and integration, are affected by the availability of graphics calculators.
