5.0 out of 5 stars Great calculator - needs better user guide, June 1, 2005

The Fx 115 MS is the most powerful non-graphing calculator I have used. It is ideal for non Math students who are required to take an intermediate college algebra class. Unfortunately the single sheet of instructions are insufficient for the type of student that would benefit the most from it. I have put up a web site for my intermediate algebra students that tries to explain to them how to take advantage of its many features: http://faculty.ccc.edu/jnadas/graduate/CASIO.fx115ms.HTM

I bought the 115es originally, and for some reason, NCEES disallowed it from the FS/FE exams, so i also got the 115ms. Note, NCEES appears to be allowing the es again; the approved Casio model has to be a FX-115 model, no designation as to it having to be the ms.

So the ms is very nice! Very clear, crisp display, intuitive keyboard, these things being better than the es. The ms is also full-featured, having solve & calc functions (very handy), ability to do derivatives, integrals, quad & cubic equations, solve simult equations of up to 3 unknowns, full statistics capability, etc. But the ms will basically be relegated to being my backup to the 115es, because the es does everything the ms does, and has unit conversions, scientific contants, matrix, table, and vector capability; in addition to being more user-friendly in toggling between the desired mode of operation or setup style.

I'm really not sure why Casio offers 2 such similar platforms, separated by a... Read more

I have been a faithful user of the HP 48G since 1995. However I needed a calculator that is permitted on the EIT exam. Since I am comfortable with Reverse Polish Notation entry format, my first inclination was to look for a HP product that is approved for the exam. However after reading the reviews on-line and seeing the price of the HP33S, I decided to look for an alternative. The TI 30XIIs and the Casio fx-115MS were viable options at a better price. I bought both of the TI and the Casio for comparison.

Both calculators are about the same size, approximately 6"(T)X 3"(W)x1/2"(D). The feel of the buttons/keys on the TI was a bit dull when pressed. The Casio keys had slightly more engaged-feel when depressed. The engaged-button feel helps when I am keying numbers without looking at the screen to know whether the calculator took the string of digits and operators correctly. The color scheme employed for button labeling on the TI does not make the "2nd" functions... Read more
