@brianokken @tacaswell @mpirnat I don’t remember having to do much in the way of hand calculations, memorization of the multiplication tables and being able to quickly do addition/subtraction in my head helped; admittedly it’s been a while but I don’t recall feeling frustrated with the amount of work I had to do by hand …most of my classes I recall being pretty flexible on what calculator you can use.

@ogi @tacaswell @mpirnat Even that though. What STEM field working professionals use calculators over using programming libraries?
