I want to buy a new scientific calculator, but which model?

Graphical if possible, and if it does exact values this is a real bonus.

Buy a Texas instrument TI-85, that will help you through pre algebra in high school to calculus in college, it graphs from an equation, you can reprogram the key in each class you need, solves equations, graphs parametric and polar equations also for statistical analysis and it has a price of $89. 25

Scientific calculators are NOT graphing calculators. For graphing: buy a TI-89T For scientific: Buy a TI-30x2s or a TI-30x2b (s is solar and battery, b is battery only)

I recommend the TI-83 or TI-89. If you are below calculus, then the TI-83 would be more appropriate but otherwise the 89 has more features
