What is the difference between a scientific and a graphical calculator?
A scientific calculator (such as the Casio FX-82AU PLUS II) performs standard and advanced mathematical functions including trigonometry, statistics, and algebraic calculations, displaying results in text format. A graphical calculator (such as the Casio FX-CG50AU) adds the ability to plot and display mathematical functions as graphs on a colour screen, solve equations graphically, and run programmable calculations. Graphical calculators are generally required for higher-level university mathematics and engineering subjects, while scientific calculators cover all secondary school requirements.
