And they run python!

There's even a smartphone (iOS & Android) app to give it a try, but the magic of a calculator comes with tactile buttons.
- alnwlsn 2y agoI find it really funny that the newer TI stuff has Python now too. But they just stuck an extra ARM microcontroller on board (which is more powerful than the main ez80 CPU). If it ain't broke, support it for 32 years!
- xp84 2y agoWow. The single click to get to the full emulator from that homepage is an awesome, refreshing thing to see. Seems like a great calculator (and company) to standardize on. I don't even hate TI, but this thing is clearly far more advanced than the TIs I grew up on. If the 84+ was $40 by now I would feel differently, but I think TI could have at least built something like the Numworks (with things like real fraction notation easier menus, and a lighted color screen) if they wanted to continue charging the same price now as they did 25 years ago for what was then a pretty respectable piece of tech for its time. Instead they did that innovation but only on calculators too overpowered to be allowed on tests, and left that market with a stagnant TI-8x series.
