How do you program games for TI-84 Plus?

Answer 1

Create the following program (hit the PRGM button, then click new & give it a name):

: ClrHome

: Prompt A

: Prompt B

: Prompt C

:(B2-(4AC)) (STO->) X

:If X < 0

:DISP "NO REAL ANSWER"

: (-B+squareroot(X))/(2A) (STO->) Y

: (-B-squareroot(X))/(2A) (STO->) X

:

: Disp Y,X

Note: The (STO->) symbol means press the store key (above the ON button for the TI-84 plus). Also make sure to follow the placing of the parentheses exactly because the answers will be incorrect if you don't do it right.

THAT EXCLUDES THE PARENTHESES OF STO-> ! DO NOT PLUG IN THE PARENTHESES FOR STO-> !

Enjoy never having to deal with that formula ever again!

Well, that's a multi step question. First press the PRGM button on your calc, then press -> twice to goto the new program area. Press ENTER to create a new program. It will ask you to name it. once you name it, press ENTER to go on. you can then use commands by pressing the PRGM button while in edit mode.

You don't need to. Just quit and you should be able to run it.

Answer 5

Go to Texas Instrument's homepage and search for the manual. It kind of has its own confusing programming language. In other words, it's not simple.
