TI-83 Plus General Information 744
Error Type Possible Causes and Suggested Remedies
DATA TYPE You entered a value or variable that is the wrong data
type.
• For a function (including implied multiplication) or an
instruction, you entered an argument that is an invalid
data type, such as a complex number where a real
number is required. See Appendix A and the
appropriate chapter.
• In an editor, you entered a type that is not allowed, such
as a matrix entered as an element in the stat list editor.
See the appropriate chapter.
• You attempted to store an incorrect data type, such as a
matrix, to a list.
DIM MISMATCH You attempted to perform an operation that
references more than one list or matrix, but the
dimensions do not match.
DIVIDE BY 0 • You attempted to divide by zero. This error is not
returned during graphing. The TI-83 Plus allows for
undefined values on a graph.
• You attempted a linear regression with a vertical line.
