#moderncalcs created December 2006 is intended as a real-time
chat channel for anyone using any model of
scientific/graphing/programmable
calculator, especially those of modern design.  However, any
calculator-related
topic is acceptable.

The channel is set up as a self-help channel:

This means that those of you who join in this real-time irc chat are
expected to share your knowledge with others. Pass along any
fascinating
tips you have discovered on your own, or learned from others, web pages
with valuable information, and the like.

This is a new irc channel!  It is just now getting started!
Therefore, please do not be surprised if when you check it out there
might not be too many present... help us get going by joining, it is
ok to remain idle in the channel (as long as it does not interfear with
anyone).

This is to be considered a 100% family-rated channel!
Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES will any unacceptable topic or material
be permitted in the channel.

Unlike usenet, irc chat is real time chat with other people!
Everyone see's what you type and can respond to you immediately.
Please use proper courtesy, punctuation, and grammer.
Please remember that some users might not have English as their
native language, so please lets set a good example for them.

You may share this message with others to help spread the word.

Please let me know from where you heard about #moderncalcs.

Topics which can be discussed in this channel include:
Which calculators are best suited to a given kind of mathematical
problem?
Programmable vs. Non-programmable Calculators.
Working a problem to be compatible for solving with todays "ordinary"
calculators.
Is it possible to have too much functionality in a calculator?
I have a laptop, do I really need to carry a high-end graphing
calculator too?
Adapting mathematical highend software (PC/Mac/Linux) problems to the
calculator.
Using C/C++ and Assembly to program todays high-end calculators.
and so on...

Thank you,
