    Introduction How often have you been out and about and suddenly realised that you didn't have a scientific calculator with you? Well, okay, probably it doesn't happen all that much... but it did happen to me a few weeks ago. I was too far from home to go back for one, I didn't have access to a computer and the calculator on my phone is a very basic affair, so the only thing for it was to go out and buy one. However, I wasn't particularly keen to splash out a tenner or so on something I might rarely use again, so I had a poke around in the charity shops of the town I was in. My luck was in: ... more

    ----------------------------Background Information--------------------------- I bought the Sharp EL-531VH calculator many years ago from my school maths tuck shop.

Nevertheless this is a handy piece of equipment that can become your best friend when in need ... more

    Advantages Advantages Plenty of functions, rather sexy blue colour :p

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Only battery powered, no graphical ability

    After losing my beloved casio calculator two days before my GCSE maths exam (all those years ago :p), I rushed over to WHSmiths to see if I could find something that would begin to compare to my stalwart electronic abacus. I needed something affordable, durable and easy enough to work out how to use in my remaining two days. The answer? The SHARP EL-531VH LOOKS ******** The first thing that attracted me to this wonderful calculator was the fact it stood out so well, being a wonderful translucent blue colour, I figured it would make it that little bit more difficult to lose! The screen is of a ... more

    Advantages Advantages great added features including memory storage

    Disadvantages Disadvantages not the most advanced calculator you can get

    i am sure that most of you know what a calculator is and you have probably used one aswel. but not everyone will know what the difference is between the ones with the fancy names right? even thought i am meant to be telling you about the scientific calculator i think it is a lot easier to understand the difference if i first explain other types of calculators you can buy. there are many different types including the standard calculator, the printing calculator, the graphical calculator and of course the scientific calculator. so what is a calculator used for? a calculator is basicly to help ... more
