Hi. I've been writing some programs in TI-basic on my TI-84 and i find it really annoying that those functions are missing. Im going to give the code examples in c++, and some explanations for those who didnt program in c++.
Code:
for(int i = 0;i<5;++i) {
if (var == 1){
//...
}
if (var == 2){
//...
continue; //if var equals to 2 the loop will skip everything, and continue with incemented i as if it has done everything.
}
if (var == 3){
//...
break; // if var equals to 3 we jump out of the loop to the first instruction after the loop(in this case var=5;)
}
}
var = 5;
I didnt find those commands in TI, and since the counters are global i make a label before the loop and jump there(continue) or after it(break).
TI code:
Code:
Label B
For(I,0,4)
If A=2
Goto B
If A=3
Goto E
End
Label E

I don't really get what is being accomplished here .___. I would do:
Code:
If A≠3
Then
For(I,0,4
If A=2
5→I
End
If I=5
Goto B
End

Alright! 100th post. Happy Birthday to me.
There's a couple of ways I thought of doing this, but this is my best one
If you already tried this way then I'm sorry, But if you haven't well...
There is a command called Return in the prgm menu
And there are a couple of things to note about it
if used in a program outside of a loop it will stop the program completely
so ...
Code:
Disp X
Return
Disp Y
Will only display X
And if used if encountered in a subprogram the subprogram will stop and "return" execution to the calling program
Since you program in C++, You can see that the return statement is basically the same in TI-BASIC as in C++
Now according to http://tibasicdev.wikidot.com/return if used in a loop, the loop will stop
So in theory
Code:
:For(I,1,10)
:Disp I
:If I=5
:Return
:End
:Disp "HELLO"
Should Display
1
2
3
4
5
HELLO
But it only displays 1-5 on my TI-83 Plus Sliver Edition v. 1.14 and my TI-84 Plus Sliver Edition v. 2.55
The only way I see to do what your doing in TI-BASIC is to put your for loop in a subprogram or
Code:
PROGRAM:LOOP
:For(I,0,5)
:If A=1
:Then
:(Some stuff)
:End
:If A=3
:Then
:(Some stuff)
:Return
:End
:If A=2
:Then
:(Some stuff)
:End
:End
Code:
PROGRAM:MAIN
:prgmLOOP
:(Whatever else your trying to do)
This the only way I see to do it
Now I do see problems if (Some stuff) modifies A which could make the code more complex
Perhaps if you posted more of your code up or even just tell us what you want to do specifically
Then maybe someone could give you an idea on how to do what your doing better
Also when you say "those functions" in the quote

What do you mean by "those functions"? |

Wow, excellent post, tiuser1010 o.o There are a few parts in there that are very useful (like with the Return command). Also, you joined on my birthday >.>
