SEQUENTIAL SIMUL
SEQUENTIAL graphing-order mode evaluates and plots one function
completely before the next function is evaluated and plotted.
SIMUL (simultaneous) graphing-order mode evaluates and plots all selected
functions for a single value of X and then evaluates and plots them for the next
value of X.
Note: Regardless of which graphing mode is selected, the calculator will
sequentially graph all stat plots before it graphs any functions.
REAL a+bi re^(qi)
REAL mode does not display complex results unless complex numbers are
entered as input.
Two complex modes display complex results.
• a+bi (rectangular complex mode) displays complex numbers in the form
a+bi. The TI-84 Plus CE supports the n/d fraction template.
• re^(qi) (polar complex mode) displays complex numbers in the form
re^(qi).
