Is it possible to find multiples of a number using a Ti-83 graphing calculator?

Ex. you ask the calculator to list all the multiples of 8?
calculator outputs:1,2,4,8.

I think you mean factors, not multiples, sir.

Yes, it is possible, but you have to write a little program to do it. I don't remember how to write code on a TI-83 though (I think I knew on an 85/86 at one point in time).

I wrote a few programs on my TI-83 when I was in High School. I wrote some programs for Compounding Interest and Continuous Compounding and then I programmed the Quadratic Formula into it.

I'm pretty sure there is a way to do the factors.

2+2 wanted to make everything a smiley face so I had to put in a space after the colons.

PROGRAM:CMPDINT
: Disp "A"
: Input A
: If A=0
: Goto 1
: If A>0
: Goto 2
: Lbl 1
: Disp "P"
: Input P
: Disp "R"
: Input R
: Disp "N"
: Input N
: Disp "T"
: Input T
: P*(1+R/N)^(N*T) -> A
: Stop
: Lbl 2
: Disp "R"
: Input R
: Disp "N"
: Input N
: Disp "T"
: Input T
: A/(1+R/N)^(N*T) -> P
: Disp P
: Stop

A = Future Value
P = Present Value
R = Rate (in decimal form)
N = Compounding Periods
T = Time

If you want to find the Future Value you should put in 0 for the first A, which will then calculate the Future Value.

If you want to find the Present Value then you just go ahead and start A off with a number greater than 0

Just created a program on my TI-83 for the Pokerstars TLB.

PSTLB
: Disp "N"
: Input N
: Disp "K"
: Input K
: Disp "B"
: Input B
: 10*(sqrt(N)/sqrt(K))*(1+log(B+.25))->T
: Disp T
: Stop

N = Number of Entries
K = Place (PS only gives TLB to top 15% of field)
B = Buy-in (less the entry fee)
