TI-nSpire CAS Programs?

AlphaNoble 01 Jan 2011 23:07

I am currently in BC Calc and I used to have a TI 84 plus silver edition. My math teacher distributed programs to us at the beginning of the year, and those were:
Euler: Computes Euler's method
Integral: Computes area, volume, length, and surface area. so basically rotations (washers, disks), area between 2 curves,
Newton: Newtons method
Riemann: Upper, lower, midpoint, trapezoid
SlpFld: displays slope fields
Tanshow: shows a graph of the derivative- i don't think i need this one.

I got an nspire cas for christmas.
Are there any programs (or are they called documents for the nspire?) that will perform the same functions? Or any built in features in the calculator that will do the same? I think all I really need is Euler, Newton, Integral, Riemann, and Slope Field.

Welcome to TI|BD!

You know what's interesting? I also got an Nspire CAS for Christmas :D

For the Nspire, they would still be programs which are within documents. Unfortunately, this site is mostly dedicated to the TI-83 series, and I myself haven't come to needing such programs yet. I would start looking through the links listed under Related Sites on the top bar.

Otherwise, the Nspire CAS has a bunch of in-built features that handle Calculus ideas, such as finding definite and indefinite integrals, derivatives of different orders, and solving equations. For instance, typing solve(x²-3x+2=0,x) should give an output of x=1 or x=2.

Thanks.

BTW, your example mad me laugh. I wish I had this calculator 3 years ago.
