HP Prime vs TI-84 Plus CE for Jr. High and High School

[grsbanks]

One great thing about the 84+CE is that you can program it in C. An eZ80 running at 48MHz can get some pretty decent number crunching done

The same benchmark algorithm implemented in TI-Basic on this machine and taking 1844 seconds (i.e. a whisker over 1/2 hour) to complete gets finished on the Prime (in HP-PPL) in 10.3 seconds and again on the 84+CE but in C in about 1.5 seconds.
