Examinations for all 22 subjects were conducted by an online Computer-Based Test (CBT). The online examination contained some questions for which numerical answers must be keyed in by the candidate using the "virtual" (i.e. on-screen) keypad. The rest of the questions were of Multiple Choice Question (MCQ) type.
The primary difference between a computer algebra system and a traditional calculator is the ability to deal with equations symbolically rather than numerically. The precise uses and capabilities of these systems differ greatly from one system to another, yet their purpose remains the same: manipulation of symbolic equations .
CAD—Computer-aided design; CAE—Computer-aided engineering; CAID—Computer-aided industrial design; CAI—Computer-aided instruction; CAM—Computer-aided manufacturing; CAP—Consistency availability partition tolerance (theorem) CAPTCHA—Completely automated public Turing test to tell computers and humans apart; CAT—Computer-aided ...
Calculator Applications is one of several academic events sanctioned by the University Interscholastic League (UIL) in Texas, US. It is also a competition held by the Texas Math and Science Coaches Association, using the same rules as the UIL. Calculator Applications is designed to test students' abilities to use general calculator functions.
The TI-92 was originally released in 1995, and was the first symbolic calculator made by Texas Instruments. It came with a computer algebra system (CAS) based on Derive, geometry based on Cabri II, and was one of the first calculators to offer 3D graphing. The TI-92 was not allowed on most standardized tests due mostly to its QWERTY keyboard.
AP Computer Science A [1] is meant to be the equivalent of a first-semester course in computer science. The AP exam currently tests students on their knowledge of Java . AP Computer Science AB, which was equal to a full year, was discontinued following the May 2009 exam administration.
College Board of the United States – permits the use of most graphing or CAS calculators that do not have a QWERTY-style keyboard for parts of its AP and SAT exams, [13] but the ACT exam and IB schools do not permit the use of calculators with computer algebra systems. [14] [15] [16]
However, exploiting the computer-like capabilities of the TI-59 is a different matter. Although the TI-59 is Turing-complete , supporting straight-line programming, conditions, loops, and indirect access to memory registers, and although it supports limited alphanumeric output on the printer only, writing sophisticated routines is essentially a ...
