Calculators Is there a better slope field program for the TI 83 calculator?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The forum discussion centers on the effectiveness of slope field programs for the TI-83 calculator. The user encountered issues with the first program from the University of Michigan, which only displayed a single row of lines instead of a complete slope field. An alternative program from the University of Arizona was suggested as a potentially better option for generating slope fields on the TI-83 Plus calculator.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with TI-83 calculator functionalities
  • Basic understanding of slope fields in differential equations
  • Knowledge of how to install and run programs on TI-83 calculators
  • Experience with graphing calculators and their limitations
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore the alternative slope field program from the University of Arizona
  • Research troubleshooting techniques for TI-83 calculator programs
  • Learn about graphing differential equations on TI-83 calculators
  • Investigate other graphing calculator models for slope field capabilities
USEFUL FOR

Students and educators in mathematics, particularly those focusing on differential equations, as well as anyone using TI-83 calculators for graphing purposes.

Hi I was searching for a slope field program for my calculator and found this one

http://www.math.lsa.umich.edu/courses/116/Calculator/TI83/TI83-SF.html

for some reason I can't get it to work. When I run it I only get one line row of lines at the bottom of my window when it graphs it. I don't get the whole slope field just one row. Thanks for any help. Not really sure were to put this so i just put it here.

I must have gone through 5 Canon, 2 HP, one Brother, one Epson and two 4 X 6 photo printers in the last 7 yrs. all have all sort of problems. I don't even know where to start anymore. my price range is $180-$400, not exactly the cheapest ones. Mainly it's for my wife which is not exactly good in tech. most of the problem is the printers kept changing the way it operate. Must be from auto update. I cannot turn off the...
