Digital camera reviews of Texas Instruments TI-83 Plus Graphing Calculator
Digital camera Review: Essential for A's
Summary: 5 Stars
The TI-83 Plus has been the reason I've attained A's three years in a row in my math classes. In college the claculator has helped me even more, they let you use your calculator all the time and with thing you can set up tables and graphs, and see exactly where all the zero's, intercepts, distance, just by looking at the tables and graphs, input the equation and just look up all the answers this thing works all the time because thats all you need in algebra 2, advanced algebra, college algebra, with the TI-83 plus, you can easily get all the answers if you are clever, if you are not very clever talk to someone who is, so they can fill you in on how to use it,there are all kinds of solvers, exponential, probability, Pm solver, this is where this calculator really comes in handy because you don't have to spend 5 minutes doing each of these long equations. I love this calculator. I always will use it, unless I get a TI-92, which I heard is really good, but maybe to powerful some classes won't let students use it. But TI-83 serves the purpose fine. Also Ti-83 plus is great for college science classes it has save functions where you can save the periodic tables and save type. Comes in handy on tests. You are allowed to have your own copies of the periodic table having it on the calculator makes it a lot easier. This is a good $100 investment in 3 to 5 to probably even more years, of usage and is worth every penny.Digital camera Review: Essential for any High-School Level Math Class
Summary: 5 Stars
Texas Instruments produces some of the most popular and well known graphing calculators in the industry. The TI-83 plus can do most any math problem found in Algebra I, Geometry, and even some Algebra II/Trigonometry. The wide screen allows for graphing equations and multi-line functions.The graphing capabilities of the TI-83+ are a superb choice for Algebra I classes. The ability to automatically find intersections and a variety of other important components of a graph are only key presses away.
The calculator has a powerful matrix editor allowing for easy multiplication, addition, and subtraction of matrices. Division of matrices is not possible. The list editor allows for statistical analysis of data both numerically and graphically. Graphically, the 83+ can plot data in several different formats.
Anyone who is familiar with the BASIC computer language can program the TI-83+ with ease. The calculator supports the use of almost every function through a program. Programs can be typed directly into the calculator, or on a computer. The TI-83+ also supports a special form of programs called Flash Applications. Flash Applications are generally quite complex, and are written in a special language on the computer.
The manual included with the calculator is superb. It goes into detail on every single option the calculator supports. Every section includes a Quick Start tutorial that provides an practical example covering many of the chapter's topics. Learning to program in TI-BASIC, the programming language of the calculator is possible through reading the entire manual and following the examples.
The TI Graph Link cable is the interface between a computer (PC or Mac) and any TI Calculator with a link port. It comes in several variations depending on what kind of computer it will be hooked to. The cable is not included with the calculator, but can be purchased as an option. The TI-83+ Silver Edition includes a Black Link cable for Windows PCs.
When the TI-83+ is outgrown, upgrading the TI-89 will require little work for anyone who has gained experience with TI's entry level graphing calculator. The TI-89 has the capability to do Calculus and 3-Dimensional graphs primarily.
Overall, the 83+ is an excellent choice for anyone taking an Algebra course or any math class above that. The calculator does basic arithmetic, graphic, statistics, matrices, and a variety of other mathematical operations.
