Just remember Pxl's have constant values, and Pt's are based on the Xmin, etc. values. But I remember when I first started, I used Goto/Lbl loops. Then when I got CatalogHelp I started using While. When I first started computer programming, I realized Repeat was like "Do Until". However, my current favorite for all kinds of programming is the For loop.

I'd never touched the For, While, or Repeat commands; I used solely If:Then coupled with Goto loops. I was leaving loops without telling the calculator to End them, too. It's amazing I never got a memory error. But I fixed that. Along with a new understanding of Boolean logic, I think I'm on my way to actually semi-sorta knowing what I'm doing! :P
I just have to conquer the great and terrible GRAPH SCREEN. I'm still pretty intimidated by it.

Even in TI-BASIC, it has its uses.

I'm going to stop now before I corrupt your newly learned programming methods :p

I'll try to help as much as I can, but I'm on an as-of-yet definite hiatus from TI-BASIC as I've moved onto the computer programming world (I actually love it more than calculator programming).

I've been to the wiki sporadically a few times in the past, but I recently sat down and actually decided to really see what was here. I promptly discovered I'd been doing everything the most wrong way possible. XP I'm still just getting into programming; only in the last week did I actually first discover that GOTO loops are a no-no. Anyway, this place is pretty neat; I'll be here for a while. Hopefully I'll contribute some useful stuff, too.
