    Calculators Why does the TI-84 give strange answers for sin of multiples of 2-pi?

    Something I've noticed that no one has ever been able to sufficiently explain to me is taking the sin of multiples of 2-pi. Sin 6pi, 8pi, 12pi. You get silly answers. For example, sin(6pi) gives you -4*10^-13 instead of 0. I've never been able to get a satisfactory explanation. Most people...

    Calculators TI-83/84 Plus - Storing polynomial functions

    Unless I'm missing something here, I've noticed that if you want to store a polynomial function on the TI-83 or the TI-84 Plus, you have to create a program that asks you what the value of x is, then displays the value of f(x). I kind of wish I could define a function without making a program.
