Thought you might like to know that it's Hero's Formula, not Heron's.

Make a Solve() function that lest you put in an equation, and it solves the variable in it.

My calculator has that, but it can't solve (X^X)^X=3 without causing an error

Summation and Product functions, Derivatives and simple Integrals, Matrix functions, Solve() or Isolate() using systems of equations while attempting to eliminate certain variables, Limits, Recursive sequences, ....... thats all i can think of for now.

[siyan]

Oh and if it doesn't already have them: vector funtions.

My HP-15C solves this one.

most ppl here call it Heron's formula instead of Hero's formula.

program to find the difference quotient of an equation.

something like this

f(x) = 3x+2
 
f(x+h) = 3(x+h) + 2 - (3x+2)/h
          = 3x+3h+2-3x-2/h
          = 3h/h
          = 3
 
so the difference quotient of f(x) = 3x+2 is 3

or something like that
