Operating Systems Versions and Programming

Programs created using the TI-84 Plus OS 2.55MP and earlier or the TI-83 Plus 1.19 OS or earlier will run on the TI-84 Plus CE; however, they may result in unexpected displays on the TI‑84 Plus CE given the high resolution screen. You should test your existing programs on the TI‑84 Plus CE and adjust command arguments as needed. In particular, any commands that display on the graph need to have the arguments adjusted to the desired pixel locations on the graph area. Programs displaying to the Home Screen should run as expected.
Programs can run in Classic or MathPrint™ mode.
Shortcut menus are available wherever the MATH menu can be accessed.
MathPrint™ templates are not available for programs. All input and output is in Classic format.
You can use fractions in programs, but you should test the program to make sure that you get the desired results.
The spacing of the display may be slightly different in MathPrint™ mode than in Classic mode. If you prefer the spacing in Classic mode, set the mode using a command in your program. Screen shots for the examples in this chapter were taken in MathPrint™ mode.
Syntax help is built in on the TI‑84 Plus CE. When in program edit mode, press

Note: Press à when a command is highlighted in a menu to use the syntax help for your programming.
