diff between TI-83 and 83 plus?

Besides about 10 years?

I have no idea of the actual differences.

 

[Ornery]

More memory in the plus. Strange gibberish...

 

[bonkers325]

no significant differences

The Plus has a different, faster CPU, and can run applications.

But I use a TI-89 Ti, so don't trust me.

TI-

 

[SVT Cobra]

More memory and it can run applications.

 

[Ionizer86]

160k of flash memory in the 83+ and the ability to use Flash Apps (which you can download and install). The 83+ does come with a trivially smaller regular ram storage.

 

[bhanson]

TI-84's come with the ability to graph functions of X, as well as the ability to look up function parameters (a help system).

Just get the 89+ solving symbolic equations owns everything else.

 

[Manuwell]

The 83 Plus has a '+' key ?!?

 

[bobert]

Unless you've got a calc teacher that won't allow anything higher than a TI-86, at least on tests or quizzes. That was this semester in Calc2. Calc1 teacher last semester didn't allow any calculators on tests or quizzes.

usb support iirc

83 doesnt have the "apps" button, so no games...83 plus does. as well as more memory and a faster cpu.

 

[bonkers325]

graphing calculators = teh lose anyway

you'll never use any of the functions outside of your high school calculus class.
