Hey guys, I'm new around here, but a longtime calculator enthusiast, and though I'm a university student now, I've lurked here since my middle school days.
I've been trying to par down my collection of calculators (9 or 10 at the moment) to increase the use I get out of them.
My most recent acquisitions are casio's graphing pair which support python - the fx 9750giii and fx-cg50 Prizm.
I like the features and software so much more than the TIs that I'm fluent with, but they could be better.
Specifically, I am hanging on to my TI 89 Titanium for it's CAS abilities.
I am well aware of the existence of both KhiCAS and Eigenmath, both of which I've toyed around with, but I'd like to be able to use CAS features in an environment that's not completely isolated from the rest of the built in calculation features. For example, accessing variables that the normal calculation environment can set, or which casio-basic programs might use. I know the fx-GC500 Prizm CAS from casio has CAS functionality built in to it's OS, and I believe both calculators run on the same SH4 processor at 112mhz, so it seems from first glance that porting some CAS features over through modified versions of OEM apps would not be as difficult as say, porting xcas over to the sh4 and prizm from it's start as a PC application.
I'm looking for thoughts on the feasibility of the addition of those more integrated CAS features to the Prizm, as I'm not sure I've seen anyone mention the possibility before.
