Product Description
The HP 40gs is Hewlett-Packard’s graphing calculator targeted at students in high school who need a computer algebra system (CAS). It is the successor to the 40G, and 38G, and it is sold alongside the 39gs (equivalent with infrared but without CAS).
The 40gs is aimed directly at the TI-83 and TI-84 graphing calculators, but it is a much better choice, as it is cheaper, more powerful, and easier to use. It also provides a good alternative to the TI-89. It has a high-resolution screen and, unique among HP calculators, provides split-screen graphing and has electronic lessons known as “aplets”.
Features:
Easy readability on a large, split screen display with adjustable contrast options
HP 40gs Graphing Calculator with familiar algebraic entry-system logic and displays answers in symbolic, numeric and graphing views
Uses:
It’s a must for math and science students with 256KB RAM of memory to create and store custom Aplets
Easily share data and connect with PCs using USB and serial ports
Use the HP 40gs Graphing Calculator and enjoy the reassurance of award-winning HP support
