Types of Displays
The TI-83 Plus displays both text and graphs. Chapter 3 describes
graphs. Chapter 9 describes how the TI-83 Plus can display a
horizontally or vertically split screen to show graphs and text
simultaneously.
Home Screen
The home screen is the primary screen of the TI-83 Plus. On this screen,
enter instructions to execute and expressions to evaluate. The answers
are displayed on the same screen.
Displaying Entries and Answers
When text is displayed, the TI-83 Plus screen can display a maximum of
8 lines with a maximum of 16 characters per line. If all lines of the display
are full, text scrolls off the top of the display. If an expression on the
home screen, the
Y=
editor (Chapter 3), or the program editor
(Chapter 16) is longer than one line, it wraps to the beginning of the next
line. In numeric editors such as the window screen (Chapter 3), a long
expression scrolls to the right and left.
