However for simple programs you can use TI-Basic which is a simple language that you can code directly on your calculator. Simply do prgm - new - create new You then enter in the name of your program and press enter. You'll be brought to an editor in which you can put your code. Pressing prgm will bring up a menu with many basic functions such as if statements, input/output, and graphing.


Graphing calculator with statistical capabilities. Nongraphing calculators are permitted if they have the required statistics computational capabilities described in the AP Statistics Course and Exam Description (effective Fall 2020).

Calculators are not allowed for any other AP Exams, including Computer Science A and Computer Science Principles, unless a student has an approved accommodation for use of a four-function calculator.


This list will be updated as necessary to include new approved calculators. Check this list periodically, and before the administration of the exams, to ensure that students have the most up-to-date information.


* Graphing calculators with the expected built-in capabilities for AP Calculus are indicated with an asterisk. See the AP Calculus AB and BC Course and Exam Description (effective Fall 2020) for details. Only approved graphing calculators from the list are permitted for AP Calculus Exams.


This list only includes approved graphing calculators. There is not an approved list of scientific (nongraphing) calculators. Note that scientific (nongraphing) calculators must not have unapproved features or capabilities.


Proctors are required to check calculators before the exam. Therefore, it is important for each student to have an approved calculator. Calculators may not be shared, and communication between calculators is prohibited during the exam.


Thank you so much for the tutorial, this greatly helps me in more ways than cheating, it is nice to be able to have notes to refer to without having to spend countless hours typing them in with the calculators keyboard. Very much appreciated!


I downloaded as recommended. I ordered my usb cords from Amazon. I entered my notes while I waited for Amazon to deliver the cords. Just got it today. Finished the transfer today. It looks great on my calculator. My finance test is tomorrow. Thank you SO much! This will really help me out.






Please Note: If your TI-84 Plus CE graphing calculator will not charge please instead refer to Solution 37152.

Additional Note: If your TI-84 Plus CE will not turn on or function properly please instead refer to Solution 37295.


If the calculator turns on normally when the [on] key is pressed:

Use TI Connect CE software to transfer the latest Operating System to your calculator. If you have access to another TI-84 Plus CE calculator, you may transfer the Operating System from calculator to calculator. However, please ensure the OS on the calculator you are transferring from is version 5.6 or later.


If the calculator then turns on normally when the [on] key is pressed, use TI Connect CE software to transfer the latest Operating System to your calculator. If you have access to another TI-84 Plus CE calculator, you may transfer the Operating System from calculator to calculator. However, please ensure the OS on the calculator you are transferring from is version 5.6 or later.


Graphing calculators are useful for doing complex math. But did you know they can also play games? This wikiHow article will teach you how to download games onto your Texas Instruments or Casio graphing calculator.


I know I'm new to this forum, but I have been an active member of the calculator community for over 4 years. I'm trying to spread the word about this as much as I can, hopefully achieving a segment on TechLinked, and to give TI enough negative backlash to consider negotiating better terms with the community. I'll keep this article as an overview, but I'll link my in-depth sources at the end.


Just a few days ago, TI Education announced that the most recent OS for theTI-84 Plus CE (-T) and TI-83 Premium CE removes the ability for the calculator to run any Assembly (ASM) code. With the decision planned to go global, this means that any program written in ASM or C will not run on any CE operating on the newest TI OS 5.5.1 or higher!


This is quite a punch in the gut for the community, TI had given TI-Planet (a very reputable TI forum that has been reporting on calculator news for over a decade) a beta build of OS 5.5.0 to review and post about. This build given to TI-Planet had all the benifits of the new Python abilities, however ASM was not banned on this build. To the community, it looks like TI knew we would hate the removal of ASM and therefor gave a different build to us just to drum up support. Then when release date came, they pulled the rug from under our feet and released OS 5.5.1 instead which did include the ASM restrictions


Performance is bad. It's the slowest Python implementation in a calculator. From TI-Planet's numbers, just about the only calculator that's roughly as slow is a Casio Graph 35+E, a monochrome calculator, and only mostly on integer benchmarks.


Graphics performance in particular is simply atrocious. TI-Planet clocked the put_pixel() fill rate at 48 pixels per seconds. The next two best calculators are 100x to 200x times faster. The next one is 1000x times faster. Forget about gLib, how can anyone be expected to write a simple ray-tracing or fractal script on-calc when it'll take nearly half an hour just to push the pixels out? Even when using TI's proprietary ti_graphics primitives it's still several times slower than the competition's put_pixel().


Almost all calculator models have flaws allowing cheating to varying degrees, and many are vulnerable to modification of the hardware or the [Exam Mode notification] LED. [Currently, there is no enforcement in testing locations that requires you to show up with an updated calculator]. [This means,] in the short term, exposing the vulnerability has only spread it and increased cheating. 



... The potential circumvention of the exam mode is ... what has allowed Planète Casio and TI-Planet to point out to manufacturers several annoying flaws concerning the exam mode, without exposing the national exams to more cheating.


Like I said at the beginning, my goal is to spread the word about this as much as I can. Although this is only effecting the CE line up of calculators right now, TI has not ruled out releasing updates to older models that also bans ASM.


That's one of my points in my post above, hardly anyone updates their calculator which means the bug will always be around on older calculators as long as testing centers don't force students to upgrade. TI removed the native ability to downgrade in 2016 or 2017.


Like Zodiark said, some people just find it fun to bring retro games to a portable device most students have. We love expanding the calculator's capabilities while dealing with the challenge of intense hardware limitations. It's what got me and hundreds of other interested in choosing computer science as a field of study.


More students have phones than graphing calculators, and the hardware limitations are VERY limiting. Hell, unless you have a colour model, the display is terrible for anything more than static images or text or whatever.


Kelvinhall05: Programming these calculators is very important. For example, the community is a stop gap that prevents bugs TI missed from effecting you negatively. You may not expect us to be doing much but we're doing all we can to improve TI's calculators. Also, what jagdtigger said ^


GDRRiley, that'd be correct, unless someone on an older OS upgrades, only newly manufactured calculators will have the restrictions. Unfortunately, these new calculators will eventually outnumber the unrestricted ones.


I say it's time for the community to stop working with TI and start releasing every security exploit they can. I think they should change their mentality to say screw it its a calculator so who cares how many security exploits it has.


The Washington Post made a great article back in 2014 that covers why TI is so popular and expensive. It's still relevant today: The unstoppable TI-84 Plus: How an outdated calculator still holds a monopoly on classrooms (Internet Archive version for those with adblock)


Even Ndless (the Nspire jailbreak that allows ASM) is in danger of being squashed out for good. The new Nspire CX II calculators are quite different from the previous generation and can't use any language but Lua. Python is coming sometime in the future but if it's anything as poor as the TI-83 Premium CE's implementation, it wont be a proper substitute for ASM/C either.


This makes me sad. It's been about 10 years since I was in the calculator community, but I remember when TI first started attacking them. They were blocking Brandon W's apps and they even threatened legal action because of some of the software being made. That's when updating first became a bad thing. Thankfully they lost the lawsuit, but I never imagined they'd completely block assembly.


But that's just one example, I've been doing Ti programming since I was in middle school with everything from quadratic solvers to geometric volume calculators, long before they were convenient applications included with the calculators. Also, Doom.
