TI-84 programming ideas?

Question

We have to write 5 programs on our TI calculators for geometry class. I have two so far: 1 that generates random integers and depending on the integer generated sends out a magic 8 ball message, and another that when given an integer can determine whether or not it is prime. I need 3 more ideas and/or scripts???? pleaaasee help me!~

Answer 1

Quadratic Formula is always a good one:

Input three numbers (a,b,c) return the roots.

If you have the time, you can even set it up to work in imaginary cases



Number Guessing game:

Generate a random int.

Ask user to guess.

If too high, output "too high", If too low, output "too low", etc

loop until the number is guess correctly.



Using menus, it is possible to create text-based battling games. Very time consuming though.

Answer 2

Hi:



there are many idea for this



1) make a program to make a list of prime numbers



2) make a program to do multiplication the way you do it



example



Ingore the @ sybol it for spaeing things here just put a blank or space for it



124* 23



124

X23

-------

@ 372

@2480

-----------

@2852





3) make a timer program where it will count down from a specific time and notify you it done it or have it turn on something



4) have it do half life equation



5) have it do calculate pi



6) make a number guessing game



7) make it make up the time times at radom and you have to give it the correct answer for it



8) make a code/ decoder program , where you give it a message and it encodes and when you put the coded message in it decodes it



9) make a tic tack toe game



10 program it to graph a function



11) solve the quadradic equation by using the quadradic formula and print the roots whetever it imarigary or real roots of it



12 ) calculate the time it will take a object to fall from a given height



the sky the limit here

Answer 3

You can make an easy program to calculate the circumference of a circle given the input of the radius or diameter.



You could make a program to calculate the area of a given shape be it circle, sphere, cone, etc.



Pretty much you could make a program that uses any simple equation you learned in class,

Answer 4

Add, subtract, multiple, divide. find modules. Which is most of the time to find the remainder of an equaition. maybe variables?

Answer 5

Good topic, just what I was searching for.
