Hi. Iv'e started to learn to program in the calculator (ti-84) version of basic, I already know visual basic, and qbasic programming, but this is compleataly different, I've found out how to archive and unarchive using the commands from the home screen but when i type the exact same thin into the program, it comes up with an error message that says "error: Invaild"
this is wahat Iv'e typed:

unarchive prgm doors
asm(prgm doors
archive prgm doors

Is there an error?
how do I fix this
:confused:

:lol:Ha! Why do you evan want to learn to program with a calculator? So when your in math class, instead of taking a nap, and not doing work you'll feel like you at least did something productive? good reason:cool: maybe you'll port Quake to TI-83 PLUS:cool: 7 awesome points for you Dopefish!

I wish they had real debugs and not some crappy generic message :\ Does it at least give you the line that gives you the error?

yep, on:
unarchive prgm doors

btw oak man: I just enjoy programming. it's even cooler when you can do it on a portable device

After I get the hang of it I'll start programming games

I used to program my old Casio calculator back in the days as well. It would come in handy because I'd place all the test info into the calculator. Obviously "cheat-sheets" removed the need for that later on, but it was the thought that counted.

Maybe the issue is with the space between "prgm" and "doors".
