[Leo] has yet another online video all about accomplishing calculus on this cyberdeck with the math shortcuts integrated into the keyboard. Fractions, exponents, and popular Greek letters are shown. We can see this remaining a genuinely great be aware-having device for engineering and math classes if you desired anything much more transportable than a laptop computer.
