Trying to run the Ahl benchmark program on my TI-84 Plus but keep getting an overflow error. Can anyone explain where I am going wrong with this? Also attached original program.
Code:
0->A
0->B
0->S
0->R
For(N,1,100)
N->a
For(I,1,10)
A*A->B
A->B
Disp B
(rand(1)+R)->R
End
For(I,1,10)
A*A->B
B->A
(rand(1)+R)->R
End
S+A->A
End
Disp (abs(1010-(S/5)))
Disp (abs(1000-R)))
Couple of things:
Edit: I think you've misunderstood the command sqr(
I'm pretty sure that means square root. So
A*A->B
B->A
Should be √A->A
S+A->A needs to be S+A->S
rand just returns a number between 0 and 1 by default. The (1) you put next to it actually makes the command return a list. I'm not sure how the original language works but if you want a specific number range you should use randInt(. If you actually wanted a list then you need to store it to a list variable (L1-L6).
I'll make these changes -thank you!
EDIT: Made changes and program works great now. THANKS!
