Learning C++ Programming for TI Basic Users

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around learning C++ programming for users familiar with TI-BASIC on TI calculators, specifically the TI83+ and TI89+ models. Participants inquire about the differences between C++ and TI-BASIC, as well as the feasibility of programming in C++ or Assembly language on these devices.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Technical explanation
  • Conceptual clarification
  • Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant expresses a desire to learn C++ and asks for key differences between C++ and TI-BASIC.
  • Another participant inquires about assembly programming and its relation to higher-level languages.
  • Some participants note that C++ and TI-BASIC are both programming languages but differ significantly in syntax, power, and whether they are compiled or interpreted.
  • There is a suggestion that assembly language is more primitive than both TI-BASIC and C++, raising questions about the complexity of these languages.
  • Participants question the possibility of programming in C++ or Assembly on TI calculators, seeking clarification on whether it can be done.
  • One participant mentions that the TI calculator manual contains information on programming and suggests searching for tutorials online.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree that C++ and TI-BASIC are different in significant ways, but there is uncertainty regarding the complexity of these languages compared to assembly language. The feasibility of programming in C++ or Assembly on TI calculators remains unresolved, with no consensus on the matter.

Contextual Notes

Some limitations include the lack of specific details on programming capabilities for TI calculators and the dependence on the manuals for guidance. The discussion does not resolve the technical feasibility of programming in C++ or Assembly on these devices.

Who May Find This Useful

Individuals interested in transitioning from TI-BASIC to C++ programming, as well as those curious about programming languages and their applications on TI calculators.

i have made programs on my TI83+ than i bought a TI89+ Titanium but i have never programed in C++ or any other programming language. so could anyone tell me about how to program in C++ and the key differences between C++ and TI basic? if anyone wnats my programs contact me with youe E-mail and i will send them to you.

and what is assembely programming
 
C++ and TI-BASIC are similar in both being programming languages; they differ radically in most other respects (syntax, power, and compiled vs. interpreted).

Assembly language is the most privative language that people program in; it gives the computer the commands it uses directly, with only a small amount of work being done to translate into machine code (e.g. replacing variable names with memory locations).

so TI-basic and C++ are more complex them Assembly language?
How could i program in C++ or Assembly on my TI83+/ TI89+ or is it even possable?

in your manual you should have info how programming in your texas should work. I have Ti83, and everything is in the manual.

For general ideas how to program, search for tutorials on google. There is also a thread in this subforum about intro. programming in C++
