Generally, you can transmit items to a TI-82 STATS from a
TI
-82, but differences between the two products may affect
some transmitted data. This table shows differences for which
the software built into the TI-82 STATS automatically adjusts
when a TI-82 STATS receives TI
-82 data.
TI.82 TI-82 STATS
nMin PlotStart
nStart nMin
Un u
Vn v
UnStart u(nMin)
VnStart v(nMin)
TblMin TblStart
For example, if you transmit from a TI-82 to a TI-82 STATS a
program that contains
nStart on a command line and then
display the program on the receiving TI-82 STATS, you will see
that
nMin has automatically replaced nStart on the command
line.
The software built into the TI-82 STATS cannot resolve some
differences between the TI
-82 and TI-82 STATS, which are
described below. You must edit the data on the TI-82 STATS
after you transmit to account for these differences, or the
TI-82 STATS will misinterpret the data.
The TI-82 STATS reinterprets TI-82 STATS prefix functions to
include open parentheses, which may add extraneous
parentheses to transmitted expressions.
For example, if you transmit
sin X+5 from a TI-82 to a
TI-82 STATS, the TI-82 STATS reinterprets it as
sin(X+5.
Without a closing parenthesis after
X, the TI-82 STATS
interprets this as
sin(X+5), not the sum of 5 and sin(X).
If a TI
-82 instruction that the TI-82 STATS cannot translate is
transmitted, the
ERR:INVALID menu is displayed when the
TI-82 STATS attempts to execute the instruction. For example,
on the TI
-82, the character group Un-1 is pasted to the cursor
location when you press y [
UnN1]. The TI-82 STATS cannot
directly translate
Un-1 to the TI-82 STATS syntax u(nN1), so the
ERR:INVALID menu is displayed.
Note: TI-82 STATS implied multiplication rules differ from those of the
TI.82. For example, the TI-82 STATS evaluates 1à2X as (1à2)ä
ää
äX,
while the TI-82 evaluates 1à2X as 1à(2ä
ää
äX) (Chapter 2).
