Speed Test TI 83 Plus Silver Edition vs TI 84 Plus C Silver Edition

Speed Test: TI-83 Plus Silver Edition vs. TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition

This video shows a test of speed between the TI-83 Plus SE and the TI-84 Plus C SE. They both have a Zilog z80 process which runs up to 15 MHz. The four tests are:

1. Graphing y = sin(e^x)
2. Use a For loop to count to 1,000
3. Take an inverse of a 10 x 10 matrix of random integers
4. Solve an equation

The results may be surprising.

finding my ti-83 plus silver edition
I thought today would be a good day to
test the processing speed of the ti
silver add versus the ti-84 color silver
edition
graph y equals sine of EDX note on the
ti-84 simple addition I have it in math
print mode i also set the two
calculators into radiance mode here both
calculators according to wikipedia and
texas instruments run at 50 megahertz
surprisingly the ti-83 plus silver
edition wins here
execute a for loop 1000 steps here i'm
going to run the program speed but first
I'll show you what the program is very
simple and now i'm going to test both
calculators the color edition tends to
run a little bit faster in classic print
rather than in mouth print you can see
the ti-83 plus silver edition just
blaze's
the 83 silver head is about
three-and-a-half times faster
calculate the inverse of a ten-by-ten
matrix of random integers you can
generate a matrix of random integers i
think from negative 9 29 ever since the
ti-83 to hear i'm going to create a
random matrix a ten-by-ten and take
their inverses
and then the results first on the a3
silver edition and then the 84 color
edition
finally I compared the speed of the two
calculators using the East solver
one nice feature of the 84 color silver
edition is you can enter the left side
and the right side you don't necessarily
have to set the right side 20
I'm getting ready to solve the 83 silver
editions faster but they are both pretty
quick
since the 83 + / added and the 84 color
silver and run on the same processor the
83 + silver it wins on processing time
the advantage for the 83 + silver and is
that the operating system is not as
complex compared to the 84 color silver
red
however i do enjoy both calculators and
can't wait to get a TI 84 plus CE which
is coming this spring which according to
cement some attack the 84 plus de runs
on zilog e z80 processor at forty eight
megahertz well above the current models
running at the 15 megahertz level my
math log is that adds pi 314 15 .
