Lists

Menu format

By default, a List function is presented on the Math menu
using its descriptive name, not its common command
name. Thus the shorthand name CONCAT is presented as

Concatenate

and POS is presented as

Position

.

If you prefer the Math menu to show command names
instead, deselect the

Menu Display

option on page 2 of

the

Home Settings

screen (see page 26).

Make List

Calculates a sequence of elements for a new list using the
syntax:

MAKELIST(expression,variable,begin,end,
increment)

Evaluates expression with respect to variable, as variable
takes on values from begin to end values, taken at
increment steps.

Example:

In Home, generate a series of squares from 23 to 27:

D
