TI-83
The TI-83 is a graphing calculator that was developed by Texas Instruments (TI). The first model was launched in 1996, its successor, the TI-83 Plus, three years later. In 2004, the TI-84 Plus appeared , which has increased storage capacity.

Function overview TI-83 Plus
The calculator has a high-contrast, eight-line, divisible display with 16 characters each. It supports various programming languages ( TI-Basic , C and Z80 - assembler ) and allows input, storage and display of up to 10 right-angled, 6 parametric and 6 polar functions as well as 3 sequences, as well
- Interactive graphical analysis with derivatives and integrals.
- Advanced statistical functions, including hypothesis tests and calculation of confidence intervals. Probability distributions.
- Custom list names with up to 999 items.
- Store and analyze up to 10 matrices, the size of which is only limited by the available memory.
- Equation solver.
- Dimensions: 82 × 183.9 × 21 mm
- numerical differentiator using the Symbolic program
- Current version of the operating system: 1.19
The TI-83 Plus Silver Edition also has more storage capacity (which is also far greater than that of the TI-84 Plus ).
Broken signature key
The TI-83 Plus operating system is signed with an RSA key. Since the key is only 512 bits long, members of the United-TI forum managed to break the key with the help of ordinary PCs in order to install modified versions of the operating system. It is considered the first case in which a practically relevant 512 bit RSA key was broken. Texas Instruments tried to prevent the key from being spread with the help of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act , but in protest, the key was mirrored in many places on the Internet, including by Wikileaks .
