What is TI-Nspire CX CAS Student Software?
Powerful computer software with a Computer Algebra System (CAS) that satisfies maths and science curriculum needs from middle school through college.
Built-in functionality
- Function, parametric, polar, conic, sequence and 3D graphing
- Multiple graphing functions can be defined, saved, graphed and analyzed at one time
- MathDraw uses touchscreen or mouse gestures to create points, lines, triangles and other shapes
- User-defined list names in Lists & Spreadsheet application
- Eleven interactive zoom features
- Numeric evaluations in table format for all graphing modes
- Interactive analysis of function values, roots, maximums, minimums, integrals and derivatives
- Six different graph styles and 15 colors to select from for differentiating the look of each graph drawn
- Matrix operations: transpose and augment matrices; use elementary row operations; find inverse, determinant and reduced row echelon forms; convert matrices to lists and vice versa; calculate eigenvalues and eigenvectors
- List-based, one- and two-variable statistical analysis, including logistic, sinusoidal, median-median, linear, logarithmic, exponential, power, quadratic polynomial, cubic polynomial and quartic polynomial regression models
- Three statistical plot definitions for scatter plots, xy-line plots, histograms, regular and modified box-and-whisker plots and normal probability plots
- Advanced statistics analysis, including 10 hypothesis testing functions, seven confidence interval functions and one-way analysis of variance
- Eighteen probability distributions functions, including the cumulative distribution function (CDF), probability density function (PDF) and inverse probability distribution function for normal, chi-squared, t-, and F- distributions; and the CDF and PDF for binomial, geometric and Poisson distributions
- Built-in interactive geometry capabilities
- TI-Nspire™ documents (.tns files) — compatible with TI-Nspire™ Software, TI-Nspire™ graphing calculators and TI-Nspire™ Apps for iPad® — can be created, edited, saved and reviewed
- Use images (.jpeg, .jpg, .bmp, .png formats) that can be overlaid with graphical elements
- Explore mathematical expressions in symbolic form, see patterns and understand the math behind the formulas
- Chem Box feature allows easy input chemical formulas and equations
- Visualize multiple representations of a single problem in algebraic, graphical, geometric, numeric and written forms
- Manipulate linked representations of properties to instantly update the others and show meaningful connections without switching screens (for example, grab a graphed function and move it to see the effect on corresponding equations and data lists)
Comments and Reviews
GOOD: * Easy learning curve * Lots of training content online * Good companion to handset calculator * Easy input methods * Surprisingly robust and full featured BAD: * Very expensive, closed source, no Linux support
