In all honesty, cashiers should be so extremely math smart bc of these exact occurances. If they arent at first, they should be by the end of the week. > [@basketball tonite 630PM WED july 25](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/basketball-tonite-630pm-wed-july-25/32938/5): > > Thread title should be Devolution of Math. Evolution of the Calculator. X1128426952952395369!!! Online learning blows…I failed Comp II twice bc the “instructor” was only required to be online 3 hours a WEEK…and of course it was the hour after the paperwork was given out and an hour before it was to be handed in…and of course i was at work both those hours. As for calculators…I had a teacher in grade school that did not allow you to use them in his class…best teacher i ever had! I do believe i had one in high school too, unless it was needed for complex problems, we didnt use them. I know I wont let my kids use one either. I find nothing wrong with the advancement of technology…I do however feel that the brain is the most powerful organ and should not be replaced with a computer chip. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/the-evolution-of-math/192918)._
