If you have to use a TI-83, you need this book
I really struggled with all the functions on the TI-83. I was spending more time trying to figure out how to use the calculator than I was how to work the problems from class. This book made it simple and easy.

No better than the information given at the purchase of the TI-83
The book is no better than the operating instructions given with the TI-83 purchase. Find a better source of instruction. Do not buy this book!

Minimally useful
I found this product minimally useful. To find out how to clear errors, you have to two locations in the book which is a nuisance. Instructions on other operations were not clear.
