HP Apps
Much of the functionality of the HP Prime is provided in packages called HP apps. The HP Prime comes with 18 HP apps: 12
dedicated to mathematical topics or tasks, three specialized Solvers, and three function Explorers. You launch an app by first
pressing
I (which displays the Application Library screen) and tapping on the icon of the app you want. The apps are
outlined in tables 1, 2, and 3 below, and described in detail in chapters 3, 4, and 5 respectively.
