ClassPad Top Tips for Exams – Collection 1

Using a ClassPad in an examination? Make sure you are familiar with these tips on ClassPad use.

This first collection of tips are:

* Tip #1 – Exact calculation taking too long? Interrupt it and calculate a decimal approximation.
* Tip #2 – Getting numerical results for an algebraic calculation? Clear any numerical values previously assigned to variables.
* Tip #3 – Solve for a parameter using a previously created user defined function
* Tip #4 – Evaluate an ‘improper’ definite integral (integrand not defined at endpoints)

All tips are presented in easy-to-follow video format

This collection also includes a video on how to create user defined function, a very useful approach to frequently performed calculations.
