Calculator Hint Screens
From editing a document, on the menu "hints":
Math Expressions
Commands/functions are available in menus and in the Catalog. You can also type them on the keyboard
- To select a previous expression or result and paste it to the entry line, press the up/down arrow keys to select, and then press Enter. The item is pasted to the entry line.
- Select part of an expression or result by using Shift + Arrow keys, and then use the cut, copy,m and paste shortcuts.
Spreadsheets
- TI-Nspire CX Spreadsheet Hints Help Screen
Shortcuts - Use arrow keys to move around the spreadsheet
- CTRL+9 page up
- CTRL+3 page down
- tab - jump to naming zone or data zone
- shift 0 + arrow keys - select multiple cells
Entering data
- press enter or click to put a cell in Edit mode
- type "" (quotes) around a word to distinguish categorixal data. TI-Nspire interprets a string that is not enclosed in quotes as a variable.
- type = to compose a formula in a cell or formula row. Specify cells and columns by typing the column letter and row number. Example: Type = A[1]+B[1] to add the value in the first cell in Column A to the value in the first cell of Column B.
- Press the Catalog (2 keys to the right of 9, just under Del on the Nspire CX) key to select from the list of math functions
CREATING A LIST
- Press up arrow until the cell of the top row is highlighted
- Type a name for the list and press Enter. Naming a list stores it for use in other applications
SELECTING COLUMNS
- Press right or left arrow to move to any cell of the column you want to select
- Press up arrow until the column is shaded
- Press shift 0 + right or left arrow to add columns to the selection
SELECTING ROWS
- Press up arrow or down arrow to move to any cell of the row you want to select.
- Press right arrow until the row is shaded
- Press shift 0 + up arrow or down arrow to add rows to the selection
USING QUICK GRAPH
- Select one or two named columns that contain values (lists). Select on column to create a univariate plot, or two columns for a bivariate plot
- Press menu and select Data > Quick Graph to add a Data & Statistics and plot the values for the selected lists
TROUBLESHOOTING
- A copied formula pastes as a string in quotes: Paste data into a cell that is in the same mode as the cell from which the data was copied.
- A variable name causes a conflict: Avoid creating variable names that are similar in format to cell and column names (such A or A1). Precede a variable name with an apostrophe ('A1) or specify a column letter with a pair of brackets (A[]) after the letter to prevent conflicts.
