TI-83-Plus Calculator Basics

Tips and Techniques

TI-83 Plus Keyboard

Generally, the keyboard is divided into these zones: graphing keys, editing keys,

advanced function keys, and scientific calculator keys.

Graphing — Graphing keys access the interactive graphing features.

Editing — Editing keys allow you to edit expressions and values.

Advanced — Advanced function keys display menus that access the

advanced functions.

Scientific — Scientific calculator keys access the capabilities of a

standard scientific calculator.

Using the yand ƒKeys

The secondary function of each key is printed in yellow above the key. When you press

the yellow ykey, the character, abbreviation, or word printed in yellow above the

other keys becomes active for the next keystroke. For example, when you press y

and then , the TEST menu is displayed. This guidebook describes this keystroke

combination as y[TEST].

The alpha function of each key is printed in green above the key. When you press the

green ƒkey, the alpha character printed in green above the other keys becomes

active for the next keystroke. For example, when you press ƒand then , the

letter A is entered. This guidebook describes this keystroke combination as ƒ[A].
