A graphing calculator is a special kind of calculator that is able to graph. In addition, graphing calculators can show several rows of text at a time.
Models of graphing calculators have been produced by Texas Instruments since 1990, the oldest of which was the TI-81. Some of the newer calculators are just like it, only with larger memories, these are the TI-82, TI-83, TI-83 Plus, and TI-84 Plus. Other models, designed to be appropriate for students 10-14 years of age, are the TI-80, TI-73, and TI-73 Explorer. Others are forms that have been modified to be appropriate for calculus, these are the TI-85, TI-86, TI-89, and TI-89 Titanium. Still, others are forms with a computer keyboard, including the TI-92, TI-92 Plus, and Voyage 200.
