  2. ENTER or 1 to choose If


End Indicates the end of a block of statements. Command Syntax If condition Then statement(s) End While conditionstatement(s) End Repeat conditionstatement(s) End For(variable,start,end[,step]) statement(s) End Menu Location
  1. PRGM to enter the PRGM menu
  2. 8 to choose Pause, or use arrows


For( Executes some commands many times, with a variable increasing from start to end by step, with the default value step=1. Command Syntax For(variable,start,end[,step]) statement(s) End Menu Location
  1. PRGM to enter the PRGM menu
  2. 4 to choose For(, or use arrows
  3. 7 to choose End, or use arrows


While Loops through a block of code while the condition is true. Command Syntax While conditionstatement(s) End Menu Location
  1. PRGM to enter the PRGM menu
  2. 5 to choose While, or use arrows
  3. 7 to choose End, or use arrows


Repeat Loops through a block of code until the condition is true. Always loops at least once. Command Syntax Repeat conditionstatement(s) End Menu Location
  1. PRGM to enter the PRGM menu
  2. 6 to choose Repeat, or use arrows
  3. 7 to choose End, or use arrows


Lbl Defines a label for a particular Goto or Menu( to jump to. Command Syntax Lbl nameMenu Location
  1. PRGM to enter the PRGM menu
  2. 9 to choose Lbl, or use arrows


Goto Jumps to the Lbl instruction with the specified name, and continues running the program from there. Command Syntax Goto name … Lbl nameMenu Location
  1. PRGM to enter the PRGM menu
  2. 0 to choose Goto, or use arrows
  3. 9 to choose Lbl, or use arrows


Prgm Calls another program from within a program, with program execution moving to that program. Command Syntax prgmNAMEMenu Location
  1. PRGM to enter the PRGM menu
  2. LEFT to enter the EXEC submenu
  3. Select a program


[[TI-BASIC:IS>(|IS>(]] Increments a variable by one and skips the next command if the variable is greater than the value. Command Syntax IS>(variable,value) Menu Location
  1. PRGM to enter the PRGM menu
  2. A to choose IS>(, or use arrows


[[TI-BASIC:DS<(|DS<(]] Decrements a variable by one and skips the next command if the variable is less than the value. Command Syntax DS<(variable,value) Menu Location
  1. PRGM to enter the PRGM menu
  2. ALPHA MATH to choose DS<(, or use arrows


Return Stops the program and returns the user to the home screen. If the program is a subprogram, however, it just stops the subprogram and returns program execution to the parent program. Command Syntax Return Menu Location
  1. PRGM to enter the PRGM menu
