Using Mathematical Functions with Lists
You can use a list as a single argument for many TI
-
86 functions; the result is a list. The
function must be valid for every element in the list; however, when graphing, undefined
points do not result in an error.
When you use lists for two or more arguments in the same function, all lists must have the same
number of elements (equal dimension). Here are some examples of a list as a single argument.
{1,2,3}+10
returns
{11 12 13}
‡
{4,16,36,64}
returns
{2 4 6 8}
{5,10,15}¹{2,4,6}
returns
{10 40 90} sin {7,5}
returns
{.656986598719
L
.958924274663}
3+{1,7,(2,1)}
returns
{(4,0) (10,0) (5,1)} {1,15,36}<19
returns
{1 1 0}
Selecting
SetLE
from the
menu pastes
SetLEdit
to the
cursor location.
You can create new list
names as
SetLEdit
arguments.
