hello, this is a instructable explaining the basics of programming on your TI-83 84 calculator. Also, i could make other instructables on more specific things, depending on the feedback. Sorry about the pictures, i'm bad with a camera.

Hopefully it helps some of you.
Or, if you want your own source published on the web. You can do that on the site too.
:Prompt H,K,P
:Output (1,1,"Vertex (",H,",",K,")")
:Pause
What i'm trying to do is get it to display
H=? 4
K=? 5
P=? 6
Vertex (4,5)
(The 4,5,6 are arbitrary values I could enter)
Anyways, the prompt part works fine, but I'm not sure how to get it to output the Vertex line like that.
Any help is appreciated & thanks in advance.
:text(-1,1,1,"Vertex (",H,",",K,")")
:Input "H:? ",A
:Input "K:? ",B
:Input "P:? ",C
:Disp {A,B}
Remember to actually use that type of brackets: they are used by pressing 2nd and the parentheses signs.
While condition statement(s)
End Menu Location:
While editing a program press:
PRGM to enter the PRGM menu 5 to choose While, insert statement, then use arrows 7 to choose End.

lbl A
disp "HI"
goto A
This will constantly display Hi, over and over again forever.
Well it's not that difficult. If this is too complicated of an explanation I can post pictures or whatever in a while. Anyway, it's quite simple, make a picture or whatever on the graph window, then go to the draw menu(2nd>prgm) and move to the right twice in the menu to get to the sto tab. After getting to this tab, hit the StorePic button then it will come up on the main part. After you have taht, you can type any integer value(0-9) and it will save the picture under that integer. To recall that picture, go back to the sto menu and hit RecallPic, then type the number that you saved the picture under, and it will display. Sorry for the long-winded explanation, I was gonna make another instructable for this, but I'm just so lazy...
