This supplementary text for the standard calculus course focuses on how the HP-28S and the HP-48SX (2 graphing supercalculators) will aid in improving students' understanding of calculus. The calculators are capable of rapid production of graphics and calculations so classes that have access to the machines will save valuable time on graphing and calculations. With supercalculators such as the HP-28S and the HP-48SX, students can focus on true Calculus concepts rather than on computational details.

Focusing on how the TI-81 and the TI-85 (two graphing calculators) are designed to aid in the understanding of calculus, this book concentrates on the discovery of relationships and experimenting rather than on computational details. Differences between the two calculators are pointed out where appropriate, as the TI-85 is newer and developed especially for the calculus audience. By not emphasizing button pushing, but concepts and the application of those concepts, a simple programme is built to improve skills. In addition, many programming notes are included throughout.
