Calculators
We use TI-84 calculators as part of a class set. If you have one I will update it to the latest calculus friendly version of its software. You are free to purchase your own TI-84. If you would like a better deal, I will buy you one on eBay ($50-60).
You may find the Desmos Graphing Calculator handy. Free iPhone or Android download.
