What is Ti-83: Definition and 69 Discussions

The TI-83 series is a series of graphing calculators manufactured by Texas Instruments.
The original TI-83 is itself an upgraded version of the TI-82. Released in 1996, it was one of the most popular graphing calculators for students. In addition to the functions present on normal scientific calculators, the TI-83 includes many features, including function graphing, polar/parametric/sequence graphing modes, statistics, trigonometric, and algebraic functions, along with many useful applications. Although it does not include as many calculus functions, applications and programs can be written on the calculator or loaded from external sources.
The TI-83 was redesigned twice, first in 1999 and again in 2001. TI replaced the TI-83 with the TI-83 Plus in 1999. The redesign introduced a design very similar to the TI-73 and TI-83 Plus, eliminating the sloped screen that had been common on TI graphing calculators since the TI-81, and included Flash memory, enabling the device's operating system to be updated if needed, or for large new Flash Applications to be stored, accessible through a new Apps key. The Flash memory can also be used to store user programs and data. In 2001, the TI-83 Plus Silver Edition was released, which featured approximately nine times the available flash memory, and over twice the processing speed (15 MHz) of a standard TI-83 Plus, all in a translucent grey case inlaid with small "sparkles". The 2001 redesign (nicknamed the TI-83 "Parcus") introduced a slightly different shape to the calculator itself, eliminated the glossy grey screen border, and reduced cost by streamlining the printed circuit board to four units.

    Calculating .001^100 on TI-83: Results & Accuracy

    This is probably an ignorant question...but why when I attempt to calculate .001 to the 100th power on my TI-83 does it give me an answer of zero? Is the calculator assuming that the answer is so close to zero that it is negligible? If so, that's probably not the accuracy I'm looking for.

    Finding Factors of Numbers with a TI-83 Calculator

    i got a ti-83 calculator, is there any way to put in a number and get the factors listed for me? like put in the number 200 and get it to return 1x200,2x100 and so on... if not is there any program out there to enter into the calculator to make that happen thanks

    Programming TI-83 for Reimann Sums: Y1=\sqrt{1+sin^3}

    I'm trying to program my 83 for Reimann sums and I believe I've got it now but to plug in for Y1= \sqrt{1+sin^3} how do I make the \sin^3 part because the parenthesis keep me from getting the ^3. I've tried the MATH button but it won't work that way.

    TI-83 Troubleshooting: Graphing Polar Equations in Degrees & Radians

    Anyone know enough about TI-83s to help me out? For some reason whenever I try to graph a polar equation on mine it gives me what the graph should look like for radians when degrees is the mode of choice and vice versa. For example, if I were to graph sin(theta) I get a nice pretty circle when...
