In addition to deleting lists from the

DELETE:List

menu, you

also can delete

IDList

. The

IDList

stores any additional IDs that

have been collected from other calculators (using the 9

1:Link

1:Receive

feature). Therefore, at any time you can delete

IDList

, just as you would delete any other variable.

The - Ÿ

2:Check RAM

MEM FREE

screen adds all statistical

list and

IDList

memory bytes together and displays the total

Apps

allows you to delete individual applications that have

been stored on the calculator. Individual applications are not

deleted when you select - Ÿ

4:Delete 1:All

because they

are stored in ROM memory (as opposed to RAM).

AppVars

is a variable holder used to store variables created by

independent applications, but which are not recognized by the

TIN73. For example, if you create a matrix with an application

and save it to the calculator’s memory, the calculator stores it

in

AppVars

since matrices are not recognized by the TIN73.

In addition, you cannot edit or change variables in

AppVars

unless you do so through the application which created them.
For more information on running applications, see Chapter 13:

Link Communication and the CBLàCBR Application.
