Hello :),
I would like to ask you guys something.
So, I have a TI-Nspire CX Handheld Calculator, (Not CAS)
I downloaded a program that makes me factor x^2+ax+b
However, the only way to factor that equation is by going to that program and using the command "Factquad()"
Is there a way where I can use this command in the normal calculation page instead of opening the program just to solve it?
And is there a way where I can rename that command into something easier to type :P, like.. Fq or something?
Thanks in advance :)

I'm not sure how to do this after the function is made but I know if you set a program as global it should appear under the regular menu from anywhere in the nspire

If you go into the program you can rename the beginning of it(I believe)
EDIT: btw welcome to the forums if you want to you can introduce yourself here (http://www.omnimaga.org/index.php?board=10.0).

supposing you have your tns file in the mylib folder and that function is in the first problem and included in some library (Public or Private).
let's also suppose your tns file which contains the function is called example and your function is Factquad(str).
in the scratchpad you can write fq(str):=example\Factquad(str)
it does what you want, I think...
mind the backslash, if needed you can find it in the catalogue.

Yaa, thanks a lot! That thing is really going to help me in my test :D,
However, there's this other function.
I tested this on the first one and it worked fine ^^, thanks.
But.. there's a function where I have to go to the program and type simultaneous("x+2=5","x") (or any other equation and it will start solving for x...
If I want to put that in my scratchpad like I did with the first, what would the command be?
You see, the first function was straight forward, it was Factquad(a,b).
However, this one can be x+2, x-5 or whatever. Is there a way to make this work?
Very much appreciated :)

let's see if I understood you...
have you tryed:
sol(eq)=:example/nicesolver(eq,"x")
?

Hmm, that didn't help. However, I found a way :)
Menu -> Algebra -> Solve System Of Linear Equations
And that's it :)
Thanks anyways, very much appreciated :D

you can just type solve(x+2=5,x)

I would love to have a cas. Too bad it isn't allowed on my exams...
