TI CC40 cartridges ... names of programs on them?
Message #1 Posted by gene wright on 6 Apr 2012, 7:45 p.m.

To RUN a program on a plug in rom on the TI CC40, you type RUN "NAME" and press enter, where NAME is the name of the program on the cartridge.

If you don't know the names of the programs, what can you do? Is there a "LIST" or "CAT" type function on the CC40?

Failing that, is there a list of the names of the programs on these cartridges?

TIA

To read out the names of the programs on a cartridge:

Enter RUN "DIR" or RUN "CONTENTS" and press ENTER.

If you have the Mathematics Module installed the display will be

MATHEMATICS LIBRARY

After a few seconds the display will change to

Use Printer?

Press N and see

ROOT FINDER-BISECTION

which is the "long" name

Press the right arrow key and see

BIS

which is the "short" name used to call the program for execution

Press the down arrow key and see

COMPLEX FUNCTIONS

and so on.

The instructions for use of the directory program are near the front of the manual for the Mathematics module and the Statistics module. I have been unable to find the isntructions in the calculator manual. Are you trying to use a module without the manual?
