Make a TI 84 a TI 89
« on: March 11, 2014, 11:33:57 pm »
Is it possible? I have 3D Graphing down, but mainly it's CAS which is an issue
Currently, I have the ZoomMath system as the premier system to use, but the full one costs money.
There also is Symbolic, but lately I find it limiting. So is there any good alternatives to the TI 89 in terms of CAS, and is it possible to program one? are they working on it? Please answer i dont want to be alone D:

The TI-84+ has a z80 as a processor, which is way slower than the TI-89s 68k.
Software-wise it would be theoretically possible to make the 84+ into a CAS but speed probably wouldn't be the best, and the program closest to that is, as far as i know, ZoomMath, which costs money.

As for other CAS's:
HP Prime
Nspire CX CAS

Casio probably has one too.

Yea, the ti-84+ and the Ti-89 are completely different systems. Someone would basically have to program a CAS suite from scratch, and I don't think that's too likely.

There is always Autocalc http://tiplanet.org/forum/archives_voir.php?id=981 & https://tiplanet.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11918
Combined with Symbolic and PrettyPrint, this gives the TI-84+ something that looks like a CAS, but not completely and I think it's much slower.

i've got just the program you need

it's a great program for calculus :D
you need to send the app and the pics and symbolic and omnicalc and prettyprint

You shouldn't have attached the file here but rather put a link to your topic so in the future people don't download this would-be outdated version.

That's a bit of a necropost, but not egregiously so.

You can literally put a TI-89 T in a TI-84 Plus, or so I'm told. It's called case swapping: You remove the TI-89 T's electronics and put them in a TI-84 Plus/SE. Obviously you need an actual TI-89 T to do this.

That being said, it's cheating to do so. Teachers specify that students should use a TI-83/84 instead of TI-89s for a reason. You're less likely to learn what you're supposed to if you have a CAS.

I saw a video of that once:

I agree, it's kinda like people begging for nLaunch help to put a CAS OS on their non-CAS model due to risks of failing their tomorrow exams otherwise. Better try to do an effort to learn without having to cheat. That said, the case-swapping trick was very common back then, especially with the TI-83+ and 89.
