Using Calculator Functions in Programs

kUsing Solve Calculation Function in a Program

The following is the syntax for using the Solve function in a program.

Solve( f(x), n, a, b)

Upper limit

Lower limit

Initial estimated value

Example Program

1Solve( 2X2 + 7X – 9, 1, 0, 1)

1K41

•In the function f(x), only X can be used as a variable in the expression. Other variables (A through Z, r, θ) are treated as constants, and the value currently assigned to that variable

is applied during the calculation.

•Input of the closing parenthesis, lower limit a and upper limit b can be omitted.

kUsing Statistical Calculations and Graphs in a Program

Including statistical calculations and graphing operations in a program lets you calculate and graph statistical data.

uTo set conditions and draw a statistical graph

Following “StatGraph”, you must specify the following graph conditions:

•Graph draw/non-draw status (DrawOn/DrawOff)

•Graph Type

•x-axis data location (list name)

•y-axis data location (list name)

•Frequency data location (list name)

•Mark Type

 

 

# Solutions obtained using Solve may include

# You cannot use a differential, quadratic

 

 

 

 

errors.

differential, integration, Σ , maximum/minimum
