Amazing Calculators

Friday June 2, 2006
I'm often told that, 'hey with the terrific calculators and computer applications we have now, we really don't need to know math'. Well, the truth of the matter is, math is about problem solving and all of the calculators in the world won't tell you which numbers to punch it, you have to determine how to solve the problem before you turn to those handy calculators! Here's a quadratic equations calculator but if you don't know what to key in, how can this calculator help you? The good news is, there will always be a need for math. Those with great math skill know that it's an opportunity gateway!
