In "Mathprint" mode you can enter integrals, derivatives, absolute values, and summations as they would appear in a textbook (or on a TI-89). You can do fraction arithmetic in mixed or improper fraction mode. You can enter matrices on the home screen in a natural way. You can access function variables (Y1, Y2, etc.) from a popup menu on the home screen. There are seven new Zoom features to set the graphing screen. There is a "randIntNoRep" option that will pick random integers in a range without repetition. It's like getting an exciting new calculator, but everything you know and possibly love about the TI-84 is still there. In fact, you can still run in "classic" mode if you don't like the math print.</font></blockquote><div><br></div><blockquote type="cite" cite="" style="padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; "> </blockquote><blockquote type="cite" cite="" style="padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; "><b>--------------------------Please consider the environment before printing this email.</b></blockquote><blockquote type="cite" cite="" style="padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; "><b>Subject:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>New OS for the TI-84 Family</blockquote><blockquote type="cite" cite="" style="padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; "> </blockquote><blockquote type="cite" cite="" style="padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; ">The latest TI-84 Plus operating system 2.53MP update* features MathPrint™ and is available to<b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>download free</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>for TI-84 Plus and TI-84 Plus Silver Edition graphing calculators.</blockquote><blockquote type="cite" cite="" style="padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; ">*</blockquote><blockquote type="cite" cite="" style="padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; ">With MathPrint, educators and students can input and view math symbols, formulas and stacked fractions exactly as they appear in textbooks.</blockquote><blockquote type="cite" cite="" style="padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; ">*</blockquote><blockquote type="cite" cite="" style="padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; ">Select between the default MathPrint mode and optional Classic mode, which displays symbols and fractions on a single line.</blockquote><blockquote type="cite" cite="" style="padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; ">*</blockquote><blockquote type="cite" cite="" style="padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; ">Easy-to-use 2-D templates allow for the selection of fraction output as improper fractions or mixed numbers.</blockquote><blockquote type="cite" cite="" style="padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; ">*</blockquote><blockquote type="cite" cite="" style="padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; ">Scroll through the history of calculations on the home screen in MathPrint or Classic mode.
