The TI-34 is a fairly basic scientific . I’m a big fan because it’s easy to use and not overwhelming.

I was reading the manual and discovered it has two functions:

ipart(x)
fpart(x)

These return the integer and fraction parts of x.

ipart(2.34)=2
fpart(2.34)=.34

Great! So, uh.. What are these typically used for? Why include them on such a basic calculator?

On a slight tangent I have just noticed that on the TI 84 int(x) is NOT the same as in python. Who is to blame for this?
