Okay so here’s the thing, I HATE estimations. I hate them so much. I’m really bad at estimating and I just don’t get the point. I want to know what the EXACT value of something is. This made me get very frustrated when we first started to learn about finding the area under a curve. I knew from the beginning how to do it on my calculator but we had to use approximation at the beginning. This was not a lot of fun for me. I knew how to use LRAM, RRAM, and MRAM but they still annoyed me. Once we were able to use our calculators to solve the problems I was much happier. I had to ask a few questions at the beginning but after that I was set. My only issue is that I have to have a picture of the graph in order to do the RAM stuff. It just doesn’t click in my head without a picture. After I sketch the graph I’m fine but I really hate sketching graphs and I hate estimation so this whole ordeal is really not that great for me. I like the way the command for this is set up on my calculator. It looks exactly like the problems that I’m given so it makes my life really easy.
