Less is More

This example corresponds with the principle of less is more. This example shows two calculators, a simple one and a TI-84 graphing calculator. The one on the right can graph, plot, draw, etc. while the left one can just do basic math operation with no complicated actions involved. Even though the right one has many more features, in the end, they both do what a calculator is meant for, which is to do operation. However, dependng on what you want the calculator for you can choose to go with the righ or left. For example the right one might be used by someone in calculus, or some complicated math class rather than if you were just out grocery shopping and just wanting to add the prices of your groceries with the left one with no complicated actions required. The right one though also sacrifices usability for flexibility because of the so many operations it can perform. It is also way bulkier and bigger than the left one making it harder to carry around.
