If you've ever used a graphing calculator for advanced mathematical problems, chances are you've used a Texas Instruments calculator. These calculators are standard equipment if you need to perform advanced math equations on a regular basis. The TI-84 Plus graphing calculator allows you to edit or add programs to the calculator. This greatly increases the functionality and efficiency you can get out of your TI-84: it features a program for nearly every function, and they are quick and easy to install.
Install the TI-Graph Link cable linking software onto your PC or Mac.
Find the program you'd like to add to your TI-84, and load it onto your computer. It will usually be in a zip file format.
