HP Prime Guide Algebra Fundamentals: HP Prime Revealed and Extended (HP Prime Innovation in Education Series)

Good illustrations and key pad locations. Examples are very good practice for learning key pad lay out. It would be great if this guide was expanded to include the calculus features and practice examples.

A good and useful lead-in to using a very complex and capable calculator.

The book was helpful to understand the HP Prime calculator.

While my original review still stands, I've finally figured out why this book is so 'hit and miss'.I's a copy and past from his previous book on the TI/Nspire, with new HP Prime specific additions.(There are still typos with 'left-over' TI/Nspire references sprinkled throughout.)When you get past the unedited/painful portion(s) containing the new Prime info, you actually get to well edited, easy to read sections on algebra fundamentals.My advice is not to lose heart at the beginning of the book, but to make the slog past the first/new section.When you get to the older material from the previous book, it's significantly easier going.Original review:While the book tries to present some in-depth education about a calculator that is by it's very nature, quite complex, it would be considerably easier to follow if the professor would learn some remedial grammar.(...Or have the book heavily edited by someone who already knows.)The order of subjects might indeed be a little hard to follow, but learning XCAS based software really has no 'flow' or 'order' to speak of .... so I don't feel it fair to criticize the author for what is a very subjective choice about his chosen order of concepts.What is unforgivable is the number of typos, punctuation, and grammar errors.When a university professor doesn't even know the correct usage difference between the words 'then' and 'than', it seriously undermines his credibility as an educator .... and makes the material much harder to read / slog through.After I've thoroughly gone through the book, I will see if the content manages to eventually 'rise above' the noise level.If so, I will revise this review accordingly.

I found this book impossible to read and gave up just 20 or so pages in.This is not so much a tutorial or a textbook, but more a series of bullet-pointed notes. I suspect that perhaps they are the notes the author uses to teach his math class, and much of it doesn't really make sense outside of that classroom context. Unlike a tutorial format, many of the points seem to be made out of the order of the actual calculations. Most of the book is not written in complete sentences, but in a truncated style that is yet strangely verbose given that the operations are all described in prose rather than shown in visual steps. Keys, for example, are all referred to by names made up by the author rather than simply showing the icon for the key. Many steps are simply referred to as "we did this" without really explaining how "this" was done.I suspect there is a lot of good material here. Flipping through the book, it appears to get into some interesting real-world application examples later on. Unfortunately, I will not have the patience to get that far with this writing style.

Could cover more of the Calculators features.

The edits in this book, and the obvious references to the TI-Nspire series, make it obvious which content came first. It is a useful book, but appears to have been hacked together in haste to cover the HP Prime. It suffers a loss of readability and, for me, lacks in imparting the joy of reading a technical instruction book. This is /it/ as far as books written for the HP Prime, though. So, if you have the Prime and are looking for some additional instruction in algebra with your calculator, you may as well buy it.

Poorly organized and written, this book is a mess. I should have paid attention to the negative reviews already posted, they are right.

met track and trace kun je letterlijk alles goed volgen op wwwde verpakking was stevig en ik ben zo een tevreden man.voor mij belangrijke boeken.groetjes AndreHasselt
