Hello Community!
I'm sorry to bother you right now but I wanted to ask you if you knew something about TI calculators (maybe experienced it yourself?). In am in facing a problem when trying to choose a calculator that would fit my needs to finish a last year of High School (not following the US Educational System, and thus, having slightly different classes and program) while being able to use it after, when I (probably) will study for a doctorate in Theoretical Physics (similar to the US educational system) or Theoretical Astronomy or Astrophysics or whatever (well, you understand what I meant, a field of study with high mathematics).
I looked it up already and fell for a TI-84 Plus Silver Edition (not the color-screen one due to the fact that it's significantly slower). But looking to use it for later studies (I don't want to have to pay another expensive calculator next year), I searched for a college one, and I read about the TI-89 Titanium. However, the functions that it provides - even though doing differentials and stuff - are ignoring what I would need to do in my High School year.
Am I wrong somewhere? Did I misread something and went to the wrong conclusions, and thus, one or the other is my solution? Would I be able to use Ti-84 by just using apps to do derivatives and differentials etc.? Or should I just go for what is supposed to be the more powerful one, and use apps in the Ti-89 for my High School uses (since I'm going to keep it 1 year in High School against at least 8 in University?). I'm damn-stuck right now and I have little time to decide... If you can't help me I totally understand, thanks for taking the time to read me though.
Sincerely.
Timothy Anderson.

I guess I'll go with the 89 then. Thanks again.
