Looking to build an analog computer to do some rather complicated math, what op-amps would you recommend for hobbyists?
I was thinking of this one:

I would like to incrementally play with op-amps until I can do some of the projects mentioned at this website:
http://www.allaboutcircuits.com/textbook/semiconductors/chpt-9/computational-circuits/
I have built circuits with the 555 and such. As far as Newbs go, I'm pretty newbish, but I feel I have grasped most of the basic concepts.
Will I need an oscilloscope? This will drive my budget contraints up, and space issues (and annoyed wife, lol).
How bad are noise problems with these?
