I made a program so I can calculate endpoint using midpoint, but I want to display the numbers in a parenthesis, but I can since the numbers are stored in letters and I can't do: Disp "(B,C)" (B and C are the numbers stored from the program). Is there anyway to do this?
Here is the code:
Code:
Disp "
Disp "Midpoint is (x, y)."
Disp "Point X is (z, a)."
Disp "
Prompt X
Prompt Y
Prompt Z
Prompt A
2X-Z→B
2Y-A→C
Disp "The endpoint is..."
Disp B,C <-- I want these numbers displayed in parenthesis.
If you know please help. (Sorry I'm new to this)
(P.S I have Ti - 84 Plus CE calculator)
If you absolutely must have parenthesis, you can use the toString( token.
Code: Disp "("+toString(B)+","+toString(C)+")"
It is probably faster and simpler to just use a list, though.
Code: Disp {B,C}
Hi and welcome. In my time, before there was the luxury of
toString(, one might have used
Output( to strategically place characters across the
home screen. Another option is the
Text( command, which accepts any number of arguments while printing to the
graph screen. The latter takes a little more prep work (since it may conflict with active graphs and so forth), but it can reward you with its flexibility in staging tables, charts, formulas, and the like. If you have more questions after getting your feet wet with the wiki, bring them up here and we'll get them sorted out.
