A graph database (GDB) contains the set of elements that
defines a particular graph. You can recreate the graph from
these elements. You can store up to 10 GDBs in variables
GDB1 through GDB9, or GDB0 and recall them to recreate
graphs.
A GDB stores five elements of a graph.
• Graphing mode
• Window variables
• Format settings
• All functions in the Y= editor and the selection status of
each
• Graph style for each Y= function
GDBs do not contain drawn items or stat plot definitions.
To store a graph database, follow these steps.
1. Select 3:StoreGDB from the DRAW STO menu. StoreGDB
is pasted to the current cursor location.
2. Enter the number (from 1 to 9, or 0) of the GDB variable
to which you want to store the graph database. For
example, if you enter 7, the TI-83 will store the GDB to
GDB7.
Note: You also can select a variable from the GDB secondary
menu ( 3). The variable is pasted next to StoreGDB.
