It is now mandatory to do some programming in the French highschool curriculum, and I guess it's also the case in other countries or will be soon. Calculators are a good environment to do that because it's much more simple to organize a lesson with the calc than in a computer lab room. And for highschool calc users who do not program on their calc, it is very unlikely that they will buy a Prime because it's much too expensive, they will certainly not pay more than the hp39gii price (70 euros versus 160 euros for a Prime in France). For the same reason, it is very unlikely that Prime users will use Apps like Quadratic explorer or Triangle solver, the target audience will not buy such an expensive calculator. |
