This is the first program I've ever created in a graphing calculator, or any real program for that matter. I'd suggest adding a "display "K radical D" step right after the Clear Home step for us newbies to all of this, but otherwise this has been a HUGE help! Very easy to follow instructions.
thank you so much for the help with the TI-84 videos, I was so worried about my algebra class and now I have hope to pass my class this semester. Keep adding more videos, do you have any about linear inequalities.
Thanks, work on my Ti-84 + silver fine, though like some said it gives incorrect answers at times but o well, just makes it faster, you can always put its answer to the 2nd power to check it. (7 sqrt 2)^2 =98
Hi, can you make a video showing you actually pressing the keys? I don't know how to clear home or anything like that or where to find the keys you're pressing. Thank you!
Im afraid I typed this up on a ti-84 plus silver c edition, and when I tried to launch the program It just displayed an error. I believe that I typed it precisely as you did. Is it possibly incompatible with the silver c edition?
I followed every step, but when I tried 153 it says "DONE", but it doesnt display D or K. If I press D enter I will see the value which is 17, but I have to press D enter and K enter. Can you tell me what did I wrong?
I put this in keystroke-by-keystroke and checked it. This program yields the correct answer many times. However, when I input 36 at the prompt, the display yields K=5 and D=1, which I know is incorrect. An input of 72 yields K = 5 and D = 2. I notice this discrepancy happens whenever 36 is a factor inside the radical. Any ideas what part of the program caused this discrepancy and the correction I should make. This is on a TI-84 Plus
Like what you said in your video, you're using the nested loop to deal with duplicate factors, however your for loop caps after 5 iterations. Since I wanted this program to work in all situations, I wrote one that you may want to look at if you're interested. When you're using the TI-Connect software, you can install this file to add the program. www.dropbox.com/s/sdnjsp00crjj2yt/REDUCRAD.8xp?dl=0 TI-BASIC: ClrHome 1->A 2->S Prompt D sqrt(D)+1->E While SC D/C->R If not(fPart(R)) Then R->D A*S->A Else S+1->S End If DS End End Disp "Where Asqrt(D)" Disp "A=",A Disp "D=",D Java: public static void main(String[] args) { int D = 153; int S = 2; int A = 1; int E = (int)(Math.sqrt((double)D))+1; while(S
+ac4pic I'm not shy in learning a new language, so I'm not really bothered by it. But I agree in the sense that students may want to learn to program while in school instead of having a job and later find out what their TI was capable off.
Your program worked for your test number 153 and several others. But when I enter other numbers I get wrong answers. Such as, 81 comes out as 6 roots of 1 or on the calculator K=6 and D=1. Or 1250, which comes out to K=10 and D=2 which should be 25 roots of 2.
It's another program The code is : AsmPrgmFDCB24DEC9 That is literally the whole code. (AsmPrgm is found under catalog) Finish your program go out to your home. Press prgm go to cataloge click Asm( 'Asm(' should now appear on the homescreen Press prgm again Click your lowercase progam Now the program name preceeded by Prgm appears on the home screen press enter Done should appear. Double tap alpha to activate lowercase now
