Nuffield Advanced Mathematics Resources File
The Nuffield Advanced Mathematics Resources file provided supporting material for four types of calculator and for the spreadsheet, Excel.
The program listings in the calculator sections were designed to be transparent and easy to understand. They followed the algorithms in the Nuffield texts as closely as possible, and they used elementary facilities within the calculator. This meant that in many cases, students were able to shorten the programs by using some of the more advanced features which existed within these calculators.

Part 2: Programs for the Sharp EL-9200/9300
