Abstract
This thesis investigates the usefulness of card programmable pocket calculators in the Management curricula of the Naval Postgraduate School and in the fleet, based upon manufacturer-provided information on the HP-67, HP-97, SR-52, TI-59, and NS-7100 calculators; NPS classroom experimentation; "hands on" programming of the HP-67 and SR-52; interviews; and the literature. All aspects of calculator functions, programming and programmability are surveyed with particular emphasis on educational and prac­tical applications. Thus, this is a baseline document for study by potential purchasers and users. This study con­cludes that these machines provide significant advantages in teaching or learning mathematical concepts and that the pocket calculator is a potentially important management and tactical support tool navy-wide. In addition, "thinking process transmutation", discovered during this study, is concluded to be an inevitable and important by-product of calculator programming which significantly improves the user's overall analytic capacity.
