Second Math Club Meeting: CALCULATOR PROGRAMMING

Ms. Courtney Johnson presented a beautiful introduction to calculator programming.  Calculator programs were integrated into her high school curriculum in Breckenridge, MN.  We learned how to use the functions:

Store
Output
Disp
ClrHome
Input
Prompt
If
Then
End
Stop
As well as some more advanced topics like:
Else
Menu
Lbl
Goto
Pause
For
We tried out programs that calculated slope between points, determined even and odd numbers, listed factors, GCF, and LCM of numbers. The ideas were challenging, yet understandable with a bit of trial, error, and practice.
