2ND QUIT is an important command • First a word about 2ND QUIT: • 2ND QUIT gets you out of unwanted menus • 2ND QUIT clears some errors that CLEAR won’t • 2ND QUIT is so useful, they made it easy to type. • Press 2ND at top left • and next door to it, press the MODE key
Completely Clear Out Your Calculator • “Reset all RAM” • Why do this? • A cheap and easy way to clear out all lists of data that might be leftovers from previous work • Whenever some error is happening and you suspect it’s due to some leftover junk • Always at the beginning of an exam in this course • A gigantic erase that resets everything
How to “Reset All RAM” • 2ND • MEM (on the + key) • 7:Reset… • 1:All RAM… • 2:Reset
How to put data into a list • STAT • 1:Edit… • List namesL1, L2, L3 (and more beyond that) • The cursor is in the first cell of list L1
Put in these values • Put the values 100, 90, 85, 80, 75, 70, 65, 60, 0 into list L1. • Type the numbers, pressing ENTER after each • Notice that L1(10) at bottom means that your cursor is at position #10 in list L1.
Put in these values • Press right arrow to jump into list L2 • Put the values -20, 0, 15, 40, 55, 45 into list L2. • Cursor up and changethe 40 to a 44. • Use 2ND QUIT if youwanted to escape the list editor and return to the Home Screen.
Calculate some statistics for list L1 • STAT • CALC submenu • 1:1-Var Stats • ENTER • ∑x=625 is the sum of all the values in list L1 (Greek letter ∑ , capital “sigma”) • N=9 is the count of how many data values are in list L1. Other lines’ meanings coming soon.
Calculate some statistics for list L2 • STAT, CALC, 1:1-Var Stats again • But do not hit ENTER yet! • 2ND 2 puts list name L2 into the command • The full command should say 1-Var Stats L2 • Then ENTER • When we did 1-Var Statswithout a list name,it defaulted to list L1.
Erase List L1 • STAT, 1:Edit… again • Move cursor on top of the L1 list name • Press CLEAR. • Press Down Arrow. Observe – it’s now empty.
Another way to erase a list • List L2 could be erased the same way • But let’s learn another way to erase a list • STAT, 4:ClrList • 2ND 2 to put list name L2 into the command • ENTER
Clearing more than one list at a time • Suppose we wanted to clear lists L2 and L3 both in a single command • After 2ND 2 to put list L2 into the command… • … comma 2ND 3 to put list L3 into the command, too • Then ENTER • (also ClrAllLists in theTI-84 “Catalog”.)
