- I haven't seen the Equation library, so I can't say anything about it. As
- for the EE card, I think you would be better off without it. Many of the
- functions it does you can program yourself if you know any RPL at all.
- The Laplace transform tables aren't nearly as good as the programs I have
- seen that actually do the transform for you. As for the equations and
- constants, those can also be entered yourself - the card just makes use of
- the SOLVER function, something that you should be able to do yourself if
- you have access to the equations in a book.
-
- The card does have some nice graphics of some circuits and electrical and
- electronic components, but these aren't absolutely necessary, and if you
- are good with GROBs you can do those too. It also has some stuff on
- fields and I don't know much about that (I haven't had that class yet).
- But speaking for myself, I wish I had programmed my calculator to do the
- stuff the card does rather than spending the $90 it cost me.
