The file editor I use only works for TI83/84, but I’m sure there’s something similar out there for the TI-89. However, the software provided by TI claims to work with all of their calculators. First, I’ll be using a TI-84 Plus Silver Edition, because it’s the recommended calculator for my math courses. Disclaimersīefore we begin, I’d like to explain a few things. This tutorial explains how to type up information on your computer and transfer it to your TI calculator to easily view at any time.

It’s not that you don’t know how to use it, or where it’s applicable, it’s just that it’s hard to both learn a concept and memorize information simultaneously (especially if you’re like me and work on a relax/procrastinate/cram the night before schedule). We’ve all been there – sitting in a math class, taking a test or quiz, and you completely blank out on a formula you know you should have memorized.
