Sorry to be nosy but I'm just curious bc TIs are not very common over here. Are you a Czech who's moved to America?
Not very common? It is easier and cheaper to buy a 10-year-old used TI-84 Plus than a comparable CASIO.
I am still in the Czech Republic. I just did IB (mezinárodní maturita).
Oh cool so did I in '21! Actually that's true we did have to use a TI for A&A maths
I did Math HL and still got bored so I picked the affordable calculator on which I could play Solitaire, Tetris and Mario. CASIO calculators also had games and a friend sometimes lent me his CFX-9850+ (pictured) where I would code up Mastermind, TriPeaks and Snake in CASIO Basic, which was friendlier than TI-BASIC, as well as a manual image importing program. I later made a cable so I have them backed up to this day, I will publish them once I found the source.
