Hello everyone!

I’m in middle school and I just got a TI-Collège (Texas Instruments calculator)
And I know it’s possible to ‘create’ programs on TI calculators,
But here’s the problem: Is it possible on a TI-Collège?
If so, how? If not, why, and is there no way (any way at all)?
There you go, I hope you can respond!

Goodbye!

Oh well, if you're already doing C, the TI language won't teach you much; it's a very simplified C. But still, you can have some fun with a TI. After all, it depends on what you want to do, but the interest of a TI 89 or 92 compared to a TI 80 is not really in programming, but rather in symbolic computation.

Is your problem resolved, or do you have other questions?

Good luck!

No, you need a more advanced model. Starting from the TI-80, it is possible to write programs. However, you can emulate a TI calculator on your computer with vti (you just need to install the ROM corresponding to the TI you want to emulate):

If you're going to emulate a TI, you might as well take the best, which is a TI-89 (= TI-92). If the goal is to program and not specifically on a calculator, you can also learn a programming language on your computer, for example C, which allows you to go much further than the TI language.

Good luck.

Hello,
Thank you, I will try to manage to use a TI-92.
However, I already program in C, HTML, CSS, PHP...
