Writing a Program• To write basic
programs today we will mostly use the PRGM (Program) I/O Menu.
• We will start the program with 8:ClrHome and
press ENTER.
• From the MODE Menu choose 2 to fix
the decimal and press ENTER.
Writing a Program• We’re going to write a program to find the area and the perimeter of
a rectangle. • We will use the Disp and Input commands that can be found in the
PRGM I/O Menu.
Use the Disp function and the ALPHA keys to ask the user for information like the length and
width.Use Input to assign a variable to the number you just asked
for.Make sure you press ENTER to
move to the next line.
Writing a Program
Write the equations on a new line and STOre the answer into a variable. Press ENTER.
Place the Disp command on the next line followed by the sentence you would like to have displayed along with the answer.
Don’t forget the comma!!
Test Your Program
Run your program to find the area and perimeter of the following rectangles a.) L=34 , W=27
b.)L=13 , W=15
c.) L=5.5 , W=6.28Select and run your program from the PRGM Menu
Editing a ProgramWe’re going to Edit the program to display the area and perimeter as a fraction. Arrow over to EDIT and press ENTER.
Add the Frac function from the MATH menu to the program
right after each Disp “PERIMETER” and “AREA” lines.
Now Re-Do # 4C
Write your own Programs
