Ha. Back in the 90's graphing calculators were not allowed during tests, but normal calculators were... Well there was a model of Casio calculator (can't find the model) which was so diminutive, and with a wide rectangular rather than square screen you never would have assumed it was a graphing calculator. But it was, and it saved my butt on many exams... By now I've forgotten all that basic math, but the ability to program things remained!
