Clock Programming Troubleshooting

Misfire 01 Nov 2018 21:56

I made a clock program and here's how it works.

When the variable T is repeated with an operation it repeats and never stops unless there is a break. When T reaches 26, that is about a second for TI84+ SE. But when I run this program, nothing happens on the screen.

While 1
T+1->T
If T=26
Then  
1+C->C
Disp C
0->T
End
End

Can anyone tell me why nothing will display on screen? Thanks in advance :)

I tried your code and it worked just fine. I think I know what the problem is though, you need to ensure that T is less than 27 before you run the code.

0->T // Add this line
While 1
T+1->T
If T=26 // or change this line to this one to If T≥26
Then  
1+C->C
Disp C
0->T
End
End

I'd opt for the first change because you could have a very large negative value in T that would require a long time to increment C for the first time. You should initialize C as well, probably to zero, since you want to display time.

Final Code:

0->T 
While 1
T+1->T
If T≥135 
Then  
1+C->C
Disp C
0->T
End
End

Note:Sorry, around 135 cycles is about a second
