    to be honest things like this annoy me, i'm actually quite glad almost all of my math teachers in college (and all of them in HS) have forbid calculators on anything

    I agree. Spoils the class.

    However, it does seem like a very useful and powerful tool. Learning or doing the material with it helps nobody, though.

    Could be used as a study tool, not just for "cheating". Lets say you're doing math work and completely forget how to do something (happens to me all the time), and you don't have anyone around to help. :/

    I was more thinking along the lines of using it as a study guide or checking answers that you otherwise wouldn't have access to. I wasn't thinking of it as a means of cheating... when I said it would be useful I meant in terms of it being a powerful cross-reference tool to help you understand your work better.

    Would've worked fine for me. I never did a problem in Calc. I just read the solutions manual.

    My biggest problem in all my college courses was having nothing to check my work on. If I struggled in a class, I would get different study guides that had problems with actual answers to check myself on. So fucking annoying to beat yourself up and go the totally wrong direction for hours and not realize it.

    This came out a few years too late though.
