SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on transferring code from MS Word to a TI-89 calculator using TI-Connect software. The provided code is for an interpolation program, but users face challenges in converting the text format into a compatible program for the calculator. The solution involves using a desktop compiler to format the code correctly before transferring it via TI-Connect. Additionally, users are advised to consult the README file included in the code archive for further instructions.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with TI-89 calculator programming
  • Understanding of TI-Connect software
  • Basic knowledge of desktop compilers
  • Ability to navigate README files for software instructions
NEXT STEPS
  • Learn how to format TI-89 code for compatibility with TI-Connect
  • Research desktop compilers suitable for TI-89 programming
  • Explore troubleshooting techniques for TI-89 program execution
  • Review documentation on TI-Connect for effective file transfers
USEFUL FOR

Students, educators, and anyone involved in programming TI-89 calculators, particularly those needing to transfer code from text formats into usable programs.

My Thermodynamics teacher gave me a code for various calculators to put into the calculator for Interpolation. I am just wondering how you put this code that is in MS WORD onto my TI-89. I have the TI-Connect software. Here is what is looks like:

This code is for the TI-89:

interpol()
Prgm
getMode("Exact/Approx")->oldmode
setMode("Exact/Approx","APPROXIMATE")
ClrIO
DelVar e
Disp "Where knowns are a,b,c,d,f"
Disp "This solves for e:"
Disp " a d"," b e"," c f"
Disp "Press ENTER to continue"
Pause
Prompt a,b,c,d,f
f-(c-b)*(d-f)/(a-c)->e
Disp "e is: ",e
setMode("Exact/Approx",oldmode)
EndPrgm

This really didn't help me in the sense that I already have the code...I need to make it in a form where I can simply drag and drop the formula into the TI Connect Device Explorer...just like any other program. How do I convert this text on MS WORD to a "program" that the calculator can use?
 
Then you would need to use something like THIS.
A compiler for a desktop machine and after you are all set and wrote your code - drag & drop, baby :) TI-Connect or install from the CD/DVD you got with the calc :)

THanks for the response, unfortunately when i try to run it it pops up for a second and dissapears
 
There's a README file in the archive and you should read it.
