gollark: Desmos is nice when I have to plot things for whatever reason.
gollark: I have my phone around much more often than a calculator, but find my calculator generally better than my phone for doing much maths on. Probably because it has hardware buttons (I don't like typing on touchscreens) and software which makes many tasks easier than my phone's default calculator app.
gollark: Calculators seem weirdly expensive given that phones are much more capable and cheaper than high-end graphing ones.
gollark: Probably.
