Teaching Computer Science Honors: TI-83 BASIC Programming Case Study - More Loops!







Teaching Computer Science Honors: TI-83 BASIC Programming Case Study - More Loops!

This week we continued working with TI-83 BASIC! We wrote some more programs with For loops to calculate Riemann Sums!

I think my students enjoy this topic as they can take these skills to Math and Science class where they use TI-83s or TI-84s. 


We'll take a look at TI-89 BASIC in a future case study. The TI-89 is more like SAGE in that it has a Computer Algebra System built in. Also, TI-89 BASIC uses functions just like Python. 

Here's our ScreenCasts and Code for this week:

Well, that's all folks!
