Suggestion: You might prefer the version at http://www.tc3.edu/instruct/sbrown/stat5008c/sked.htm because the underlining you see in print becomes active links on line.
If you print this page, use Landscape mode for best results.
Calculator: You should understand how the formulas work, but use your TI for complicated calculations and to avoid table lookups.
