Ymin function not working correctly

aiunsdifunsiduniu 25 Dec 2018 21:14

I am trying to do this tutorial on my TI-83+ calculator (tibasic(dot)wikia(dot)com/wiki/Pong( i cant post links)) but I am stuck at this bit

:0→Xmin
:-62→Ymin

I have the -62→Ymin bit typed in correctly but it gives me an error.
"ERR:SYNTAX"

EDIT: I have fixed it now (I was using the subtract symbol instead of minus symbol) but now I have a different error
On this bit of code

:Line(91,B,91,B+9

i am getting the error "ERR:INVALID DIM"

I would try re-typing that line. Make sure you are using the negative sign, and not the minus operator.

Beyond that, perhaps it is on the next line. It is not uncommon for the calculator to find an error on a line when the error exists in a previous line or the next line.

EDIT: If you were linking to this page, then the source code appears to have no Ymin or Xmin functions. Perhaps give us the whole source code?

I think they were talking about tibasic.wikia.com and not tibasicdev.wikidot.com

Thanks, I think this may be my problem , I didn't know they were 2 different things.
