Displaying Entries and Answers
Mode settings control how the TI-84PlusCE interprets expressions and
displays answers. Press z to switch between classic entries and MathPrint™
mode. This guide focuses on MathPrint™ Mode, but may reference some
classic entries.
MathPrint™ Mode

screen or the Y=screen). Press ~ to see the entire expression.
Tip: Press the cursor without pressing y to move the cursor along the
line.
• An arrow appears to the left of an answer if it scrolls off the screen. Press

answer.
