Here are ten reasons you should consider the TI-83 Plus/TI-83 Plus Silver Edition:
1. Very fast, reliable calculations
2. Menu driven, so you can go straight to the category of functions you want, and select your item
3. It's programmable, and for most applications, you can program useful algorithms and even games (games take up a lot more space than math programs however)
4. Texas Instruments is constantly adding to the number of applications you can get, some for free, some for purchase. My favorites include: Poly Solver, Probability Simulation (you can draw from a deck of cards or roll dice). Also Detached Solutions has several applications such as symbolic math (in its first stages).
5. Finance, Time-value-of-money, days-between-dates, and interest conversion given to you from the get-go.
6. Solver, solve for any variable.
7. Matrices, for linear programming.
8. Graphing, including Function, Sequential, and Polar. (Differential equations app coming soon)
9. Well written manual.
10. Recommended for: Accounting, Finance, Business, Chemistry (Periodic Table app available), Biology, Most Math Classes (for Pure Math and Engineering, a TI-89/92 Plus is recommended)
My favorite calculator, I use this one the most out of my collection. Well worth the $...Get more detail about Texas Instruments TI-83 Plus Graphing Calculator.
