Great Help

I don't have anything bad to say about this guide. It helped me greatly! Get it if you want to learn the T1-83 plus graphing calculator.
Very informative; Great resource

I found this book to be absolutely necessary when using the TI-83 Plus Graphing Calculator. There are areas of this book that are very technical, but as I got further along in College Algebra, I was able to figure most of it out. I mainly used the book as a resource to look up how to do things or answer questions. The error section provided by the author was a tremendous help when troubleshooting syntax errors and configuring the window setup.
This will help with College Algebra

I bought this book for my husband who is going for his Bachelors degree and found out that our other college course didn't transfer. This has helped him so much and he is holding a 93% in the class. Will everyone get this good a grade? Maybe not but it helped my husband. Easy explanations and instructions to follow. Would definitely recommend.
Beats the Heck out of "Manual" Labor!

All too often students and professionals get tekkie-toys that they just don't have time to learn throughly. This book manages to do just that for the TI-83+; quickly, without expending midnight oil or pulling out any hair.
"For Dummies" is a misleading title for this series. Call it "For Smart People who Value their Time and expect results".

I bought this book to supplement the CD that came with the calculator. Of course the pamplet that comes with the calculator is not worth mentioning. Great book. Really good. Have not used the CD much as I have this. I recommend it if yo are using the calculator and if it is new to you. If you have experience with TI cals then maybe you do not need this. But the CD is a tough go to use quickly and this book might be everyones answer. Sure is mine.
