Hi
I am struggling to write some simple programs to use a TI-89 titanium calc for marine navigation.
For instance, if I can see an island that the chart says is 1 nautical mile wide, and the sextant says the angle of the arc between the sides of the island is 2 degrees, the range of the island is equal to the width of the island divided by (degrees in the arc x 0.017453).
I would like to type in a program that asks for the width and degrees, then spits out the range.
Got as far as "range()" but can't see what to put between parentheses to get it to ask the questions, or how to connect the answers to the formula. It looks like a straight forward function to me??
Can anyone point me to a program that will serve as a basis for the program I want?
Thanks
David |
