Giac/Xcas on Prime - Marcel - 06-25-2017 12:58 PM

Hi!
I don’t think HP will put the complete Giac/Xcas commands in the Prime Calculator because if they do it, the Prime will be a Giac/Xcas computer base…
When I do math on my cumputer, I don’t name my cumputer by it’s name (DELL) but the program I use to do the math (Mathematica).
HP can do it but it will loose the brand name..

Very unlikely Prime will be called Giac/Xcas with full adoption. It is so much more than CAS. Look at the home mode, the apps, graphing etc, etc, with all it's functionality.

HP Prime is HP prime period.

However, adopting full Giac/Xcas will make it more superior and perfect for engineering schools.
