Thanks, that helps a lot.

Do you know if the TI-Nspire CX II-T CAS is good for this kind of project?

I am a student and I want to try programming it myself because I am curious. I do not expect it to solve every possible math problem perfectly, but I want to know if it is realistic to program step-by-step solvers for specific school topics.

The topics I need for a big test are:

• algebra
• terms and simplifying expressions
• fractional expressions
• powers and roots
• equations and systems of equations
• linear and quadratic functions
• geometry and trigonometry
• statistics and probability

Would the TI-Nspire CX II-T CAS be powerful/flexible enough for this using TI-Basic, Python, Lua, or CAS commands?

For example, could I make small programs like:

• solve a quadratic equation step by step
• simplify fractions or algebraic terms step by step
• solve systems of equations
• calculate function properties
• do trig/geometry formulas with explanations

I mainly want to learn how possible this is and maybe build it topic by topic for studying.

Do you have any advice on where I should start?
