smerny Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 They are about the same in price. Which one would be better for me? (and why?) Taking Stats and Computer Science classes.

Daniel0 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 What do you need a calculator for in a computer science course? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/175944-ti-84-silver-vs-ti-89-titinium/#findComment-927115 Share on other sites More sharing options...
smerny Posted September 29, 2009 Author Share Posted September 29, 2009 There are many Math classes in the computer science major. What are the differences between these calculators that would be relevant?

Daniel0 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Well, I don't how your math classes are, but you can get through all math courses here with just a basic scientific calculator (just because there is no reason to calculate e.g. 20! by hand). It's not so much the result, but how you get to the result that matters after all. Â Anyways, TI-89 has CAS and I don't think TI-84 has. I think that's one of the major differences. I have got a TI-89 Titanium, but I rarely use it.

.josh Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 the TI-89 is obviously better, as it is "89" whereas the TI-84 is only "84" and 89 is more than 84. I actually did that math in my head, so I don't see how either one of those would be useful IMO .
