SUMMARY

The TI-36X Pro calculator allows users to save one program or equation in memory, along with any calculations left on the stack. This feature is beneficial for performing repeated calculations in calculus and physics, such as Newton's method and linearization. However, users should be cautious as the stack can be easily cleared, resulting in the loss of stored equations. For detailed instructions, refer to page 30 of the owner's manual, which explains how to store up to 44 characters in permanent memory.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of the TI-36X Pro calculator functions
  • Basic knowledge of calculus and physics concepts
  • Familiarity with storing and retrieving data on calculators
  • Ability to read and interpret calculator manuals
NEXT STEPS
  • Review the TI-36X Pro owner's manual for detailed instructions on memory storage
  • Explore advanced features of the TI-89 calculator for comparison
  • Learn about effective use of calculator stacks for temporary storage
  • Research methods for implementing Newton's method on calculators
USEFUL FOR

Students and professionals in mathematics and physics, particularly those using the TI-36X Pro for complex calculations and seeking efficient ways to store and retrieve equations.

Can anyone help me on how to save functions on a ti 36x pro for future calculations?

I am doing a lot of plug and chug calculus and physics problems that would save me time if I knew how to save the functions and real them later, by changing what x is.

Ie. Newtons method to finding roots when the domain is not given. Linearization (relative error) etc.

Thanks. I will give big hug to first poster

It may not have this feature, I think the ti-89 has it though with its scrolling display.
 
For other's future reference. Yes, the Ti-36 Pro version can hold one program / equation in memory, plus whatever you leave on the stack (where you can go and re-use). However it can be easily cleared and lost on the stack. See page 30 of your owner's manual for details on storing up to 44 characters into permanent memory.

The stack is very useable, just that it can be cleared and lost very easily. It is retained on power down, which is better than the Casio line which clears all memory on power down.
