Ordered a new calculator

   Dropped on a ti-nspire color edition with computer algebra system. I had the titanium, but I gave it to my brother. Was the nspire good investing? I have 8 more years of community control, a great excuse to be unemployed which is a good reason to go to school. I want to audit, but CAS calculators are frowned upon. Do you think the teacher will care if I'm just auditing, or will there still be the ethics issue. I really want to improve my maths but ultimately I want to come to great understanding of the following
   Physics
   Chemistry
   Pharmacy
   Biology
   Genetics
   Engineering
   Electrical engineering
   Biomedical engineering
   Cybernetics
   Surgery
   Accounting
   Biochemistry
   Astronomy
   Genetic engineering
   Gene therapy
   Biochemistry
   Necromancy (lol)
   Alchemy
   Nuclear physics
   
   I have some credits, but I'm not really looking for prestige.
   Respond post haste.

   Nice. My last calculator was destroyed when I spilled acetone all over it at work and thought "eh, it'll be fine when it dries."
   
   Fucking NOPE! All the buttons and shit were melted together. And I had been programming a fallout-style game that I'd been working on for over a year on it too.

   I'm really interested to know if my learning rate will improve with addition of the color. It's cas, so I hope it will make bitch work of differential equations. But I am on a tangent. I'm in a cerebral phase trying to figure out how to put the question into the calculator for applied mathematics. Like volume increases at x rate so how does radius increase. Fuck that shit nigga, I just want to copy equations from the book into the calculator. It's a good hobby though, it's great how the stuff you can do for fun can better equip you to deal with real word stuff.

   Acetone is GOAT solvent. So many things that we think of as being solid just melt in it.

   You'll have a hard time keeping all those things in your head at the same time. Ultimately mental storage space is limited, no matter what they say.
   
   Also Necromancy is complete bullshit, and Alchemy is obviously bullshit as you can't make gold via chemical means (and non-chemical means such as neutron bombardment are massively expensive) and the whole idea that "alchemy is a spiritual process" is retconned bullshit.

   It will be hard to keep it all in my head, which is why I intend to learn it over the course of a (several) lifetime(s).
   Yea necromancy is total pseudo science lol, I just always admire the necro's the most in all the rpgs I play.
   
   But one day I hope to go to space with the one I love, as the sun's going to explode and what not :( gotta get far away.
   
   I'd like to mine He3 off of the moon, stuff's gold. Make a fortune and retire on a yacht. Spend the time on the yacht learning how to survive in space. >.<"

   TBH using a graphing calculator as opposed to Matlab, GNU Octave, R, or something else used in industry (even Python or Wolfram beta) is pointless and weird. The day of graphing calculators is gone. Asking about which one to buy is a broken question.
   
   I understand teachers don't want you cheating or whatever, but computers and phones are what people use now.

   I apologize for my shortcomings.
