  One of the scientific calculators has great business functions in a menu (ti83 maybe?). I prefered it to actual business calculators. And it could handle the science classes as well.

  I don’t remember the exact model, though. Once out of school we use excel.

  It’s algorithmic to get you to pay more. The price will go up during high demand. Their “sales” are often more than the normal price. Then the price will go back down when demand falls. It works (for Amazon).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What antivirus software should i use?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Windows defender is the best you can get at a reasonable price. But nothing is perfect, so don’t test fate.
