1. Clearly impossible on the Prime.
2. Addresses difficulties with questions unresolved in the forum.
3. Used within device tolerance, calculators, including the Prime, reliably solve problems.

Get non-cake-eating, 15-year old, students.

My emphasis above.

Why impossible? Just because you & me don't know how to operate the calculator correctly?

Please give details concerning "impossibility" of finding solution.

Hypothesis: 'Impossible' (to create non-cake-eating, 15 year old students), on the hp Prime.

Minimal evidence: The hp Prime user guide does not suggest a genomic algorithm exists. Many 15-year old students are driven by hormones and environmental fads, with cake providing a means to that end, especially in social settings.

Postulate: Your students are 15 year olds, (given), they have calculators, (given), unresolved problems exist in the forum, (given) , your 15-year old students cannot resolve unresolved problems in the forum, (given). A calculator can resolve problems. The hp Prime is a calculator. The hp Prime can resolve problems.

Conclusion: Some will innovate, some will just eat cake.
