AI Thread Summary
The diamond + stor -> key on the TI89 calculator is not widely recognized, leading to confusion among users. The @ symbol, commonly seen during computations, represents an arbitrary integer. According to the TI89 manual, when this arbitrary integer appears multiple times in a session, it is numbered consecutively up to 255, after which it restarts at @n0. Users can reset the numbering using the Clean Up 2:NewProb function. For further clarification, consulting the manual or the company's website help section is recommended.

i am having trouble finding out what the diamond + stor -> key do. i don't know what that symbol means
 
Computer science news on Phys.org
anybody know what this key means?
 
Don't you have a manual for it? :confused:
If not, maybe try out the company's website help section. Personally, I've never even seen one of those devices.
 
I've seen the @ symbol a few times when I do certain computations. @ indicates an arbitrary integer and the TI89 manual has also given @ the name arbitrary. Here is what the TI89 manual (pg. 80; Symbolic Manipulation) had to say:
When an arbitrary
integer occurs multiple
times in the same
session, each
occurrence is numbered
consecutively. After it
reaches 255, arbitrary
integer consecutive
numbering restarts at
@n0. Use Clean Up
2:NewProb to reset to
@n1.

In my discussions elsewhere, I've noticed a lot of disagreement regarding AI. A question that comes up is, "Is AI hype?" Unfortunately, when this question is asked, the one asking, as far as I can tell, may mean one of three things which can lead to lots of confusion. I'll list them out now for clarity. 1. Can AI do everything a human can do and how close are we to that? 2. Are corporations and governments using the promise of AI to gain more power for themselves? 3. Are AI and transhumans...
Thread 'ChatGPT Examples, Good and Bad'
I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
