SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on creating a program for the TI-89 calculator to calculate the magnitude of two vectors, A and B, using the formula (A^2 + B^2)^0.5. The user is directed to the TI-89 Titanium Guidebook for programming instructions and provided a simple code snippet: ":Prompt a,b :Disp (a^2+b^2)^.5". This basic program effectively prompts for two vector inputs and displays the calculated magnitude, serving as a foundational example for TI-89 programming.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with TI-89 programming syntax
  • Understanding of vector mathematics
  • Access to the TI-89 Titanium Guidebook
  • Basic knowledge of calculator functions and operations
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore advanced TI-89 programming techniques
  • Learn about vector operations in programming
  • Investigate error handling in TI-89 programs
  • Study optimization of TI-89 programs for performance
USEFUL FOR

Students, educators, and programmers interested in TI-89 programming, particularly those focused on mathematical computations and vector analysis.

I would like to make a program for which you give two vectors, A and B, and it returns (A^2 + B^2)^0.5. How can I do this?

and scroll down the left hand column table of contents until you get to Programming. Then open up that section of the manual with a click. Step through the introduction page by page and it will show you how to enter and later run a program or function of your own.

If you just want a simple program...

:Prompt a,b
:Disp (a^2-b^2)^.5

Now, that is the most basic version, and not very good looking, but it will get the job done.
 

Thread 'Looking for a reliable inkjet All-In-One printer for photos and docs'

I am having a hell of a time finding a good all-in-one inkjet printer. I must have gone through 5 Canon, 2 HP, one Brother, one Epson and two 4 X 6 photo printers in the last 7 yrs. all have all sort of problems. I don't even know where to start anymore. my price range is $180-$400, not exactly the cheapest ones. Mainly it's for my wife which is not exactly good in tech. most of the problem is the printers kept changing the way it operate. Must be from auto update. I cannot turn off the...
