2.0 out of 5 stars If you don't buy the TI-83 Plus for Dummies book, you will not get this one., Sep 17 2005

By Douglas L. Datwyler - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: TI-84 Plus Graphing Calculator For Dummies (Paperback)

If you don't buy the TI-83 Plus for Dummies book, the TI-84 Plus book won't do you any good. There are way TOO many references to the TI-83 book and the book is written in a way that implies you spent the money to upgrade to a TI-84+, rather than buying the TI-84+ out right.

Save your money, unless you agree that spending the money for both books is a good deal.

1.0 out of 5 stars This Book is Downright Terrible, Jun 18 2008

By Robert S. Clark "Sean Clark" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: TI-84 Plus Graphing Calculator For Dummies (Paperback)

I have literally not gotten one single answer out of this book. It is a dark unholy thing...just lurching into the night. Even the index is terrible in that it is extremely limited. There is not even an entry on how to use logorithmic functions. I have literally had way better luck pressing buttons in all kinds of combinations to slowly figure out how to use my graphing calculator. Even the manual that came with the unit is way better than this book.

If you buy this rotten book, then plan to take up smoking. You will need to because it is extraordinarily stressful to try and find a single answer to anything out of this rotten text.

This review is from: TI-84 Plus Graphing Calculator For Dummies (Paperback)

It was better of course than the book that came with the calculator however it didn't give you all the infomation on how to use the inverses and the finance problems in the book, needs more samples of how to enter the problems.
