Author Topic: TI-84 calculator  (Read 1872 times)

Anyone ever use one? I recently recieved one for school and have been playing around with it, its pretty fun in school

A friend and I programmed a few things on it, but I've now moved on to my TI-89 <3

I hate them so much, it seems like every year, you have to get a new one to do the new equations... >:(

I use an 84+ and I like it a lot. I don't get games on it because we had to reset the memory after most tests last year, dunno about this year.

They have buttloads of them at my school

I have some type of Texas Instruments calc but don't know which model so

I dont think my teacher resets them, I was about to start putting some stuff on it. I was  wondering if this affects the calculator at all?

On the math topic: anybody ever learn how to divide by zero? some of my friends at school said their teacher taught them some complex method that is similar to dividing by zero. It sounds stupid and unreal to me, but... :P

And i always play around with the 20-30 buttons on school calculators :3

I've had one since eighth grade. My boredom in math class resulted in me teaching myself TI-BASIC, so I've invented some neat threading systems and made epic games.

How do you hook it up to the computer? I have ti connect and its says it cant seem to find it. It says i need the driver file but i can not find it.

I'm using an 84+, and I really don't see how it's different from an 84+ Silver besides apps, but anyways:
Coding on it is easy, it's TIBasic, which is probably one of the easier languages you'll learn.

Ya, it involves a lot of sine and cosine and all that fun stuff.

What? No you don't.

Fun Fact: A community for calculators like this is big in TBM, too.

I want one of these calculators. It would be like a school safe gameboy.

My math teacher taught everyone how to get to mirageOS.  I lol'd.

Haha, I have FinalFantasy using Mirage :)
