Exercise 2: Storing Values as Variables
You can store a value as a named variable and then use the name
to refer to that value in subsequent Math Boxes and graphs. When
TI InterActive! evaluates an expression containing the name, it
substitutes the value stored under that name.
This exercise shows you how to:
¦
Define a variable and assign a value to it.
¦
Display a variable’s value in a document.
¦
Remove a variable.
¦
Perform symbolic calculations.
¦
Reposition TI InterActive! objects in a document.
¦
Reset all variables.

in a calculation
After storing a value in a variable, you can use the variable name
in an expression as a substitute for the stored value.
1. Click the Math Box button
to insert a new Math Box, if
necessary.
2. Type
4*25*num^2

Because the variable
nonum
has not been defined, it is treated
algebraically in the result.

To enter several statements in a single Math Box, separate them
with pairs of colons. Only the result of the last expression is
shown.
You can delete TI InterActive! math objects (such as Math Boxes,
lists, and graphs), and you can drag them to a different position
on the page. However, deleting or moving an object can cause
results to change in the objects that follow it.
That’s because variables persist from one math object to another.
The physical positions of the objects determine the order in
which they are processed by the TI InterActive! math system. The
“math flow” is identical to the reading pattern: left-to-right along
each line of a paragraph, and top-to-bottom between paragraphs.

Saving objects
Opening objects
Objects can be saved to the document to preserve their
characteristics at any time. In this way, the saved information may
be modified and updated to facilitate mathematical exploration.
Some objects, such as the Math Box, are automatically saved to the
document upon entering information. Other objects, such as the
graph and list editors, require you to specifically save the
information to the document.
Look for the Save To Document item
under the File menu in each
component. A corresponding icon is
also available. The icon is usually
positioned in the leftmost position of
the toolbar for the various object
editors.
For example,

To move an object, point to the object with your mouse and drag
it to the new location. If the object does not drop at the location
you want, it may be because there isn’t an empty space or
sufficient room. Since objects are inserted into the document as
characters, there must be an empty space with sufficient room in
which to place the object. “Empty spaces” are found next to
existing objects or text and on empty lines.
Sometimes it may appear that there is an empty line at the end of
the document when there is not.
Deleting objects
There are two ways to delete objects that have been inserted in a
TI InterActive! document.

If two or more objects are floating objects, they can be placed
adjacent to each other or overlapping. Once an object is changed
to floating and placed in the document, it does not change its
position unless you move it.

Math updates
The TI InterActive! math system is dynamic
and performs updates of all variables whenever
a new object is defined, modified, or moved.
This feature enables new ways in which to
illustrate ideas and concepts. It may also
require some experience in order to know what
to expect.
Each object has an evaluation point that determines when its
information is available for evaluation by the math system.
Evaluations occur in a specific order.
¦
Objects whose evaluation point appears above or to the left
of other objects’ evaluation points are evaluated first.
¦
Subsequent objects are evaluated in this spatial order until all
objects in the document are evaluated.
This evaluation occurs many times during the course of creating
or editing a document. The example below illustrates the
importance of the math evaluation order.

An additional aspect of math updates is the location of the
evaluation points for each object. For all objects (except the Math
Box, graph, and matrix), the evaluation point is located at the topleft corner of the object. For the Math Box, graph, and matrix, the
evaluation point is located at the bottom-right corner. To view the

preparing course materials.

located at the Site for which the Program is licensed. You may make one copy of the software for
backup and archival purposes. You agree to reproduce all copyright and proprietary notices shown in
the software and on the media. Except as expressly stated herein or in the documentation, you may not
duplicate such documentation. In cases where TI supplies the related documentation electronically you

GENERAL
LICENSOR SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES CAUSED BY THE USE OF
THE PROGRAM, OR SUFFERED OR INCURRED BY YOU OR ANY OTHER PARTY INCLUDING
BUT NOT LIMITED TO SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, EVEN IF LICENSOR HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
DAMAGES. IN JURISDICTIONS WHICH ALLOW TEXAS INSTRUMENTS TO LIMIT ITS
LIABILITY, TI’S LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE APPLICABLE LICENSE FEE PAID BY YOU.
Because some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages or
limitation on how long an implied warranty lasts, the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to
you.
This Agreement will immediately terminate if you fail to comply with its terms. Upon termination of this
Agreement, you agree to return or destroy the original package and all whole or partial copies of the
Program in your possession and so certify in writing to TI.

required of the Bureau of Export Administration of the United States Department of Commerce, or such
other governmental entity as may have jurisdiction over such export, re-export or transmission.
