Texas Instruments TI Programmable 57 User Manual

A FIRST LOOK AT THE
TI PROGRAMMABLE 57
The
calculator
you're
about
to
begin
using
is
really
straight
out
of
the
“world
of
science
fiction’
of just
a
few
months
ago.
Only
the
most
recent
advancements
in solid-state
technology
have
made it
possible
to
put
such
an
easy
and
fun-to-use
bundle
of
power
right
in
the
palm
of
your
hand.
Easy To Use
A
quick
look
at
your
calculator
will
tell
you
that
it's
packed
with
lots
of
keys
and
features.
Introducing
you,
step-by-step,
to
each
of
these
keys
and
features
is
one
primary
purpose
of
this
book.
Above
and
beyond
all
these
features,
however,
is
one
overriding
characteristic
that
was
designed
into
your
TI
Programmable
57
right
from
the
start:
It's
easy
to
use.
It's
easy
to
make
it
do
many
things
that
can
be
enormously
helpful
in
your
schoolwork,
extremely
powerful
in
your
career,
and
a
lot
of
fun
in
your
everyday
life.
It's
designed
to
be
a
working
tool
that,
working
together
with
the
information
contained
in
this
book,
becomes
a
system
for
problem-solving
and
a
key
to
discovery.
We
hope
you'll
enjoy
using
and
exploring
with
it.
STARTING AT THE ToP
In
learning
about
your
machine,
let's
start
right
off
with
the
nameplate
—
and a brief look at why we called it what we did:
TI — The calculator is built by Texas Instruments Incorporated.
PROGRAMMABLE
—
As
you
wil!
be
seeing
in
a
few
seconds,
it
is
easy
to
“teach”
your
machine
to
help
in
solving
problems,
evaluating
formulas
and
building
“models”
of
your
world.
You
can
lay
down
a
set
of
Tracks’
that
the
machine
will
follow
as
it
solves
a
problem.
A
word,
recognizable
to some
folks,
that
describes
such
a machine
is
already
around:
Programmable”.
This
machine,
however,
is
a
new
thing
—
with
1
whole
new,
easy
approach.
So
if
“programmable”
is
a
word
that
scares
you
—
don't
let
it.
Using
your
57”
is
a
cinch.
57 — This machine is the latest in a growing family of Texas Instruments
programmable calculators, and it's “following in the footsteps" of
another machine, our SR-S6. The 57 is an even easier machine to use —
designed for especially straightforward use.
