The seq() command returns a list.

For example:
Code: [Select]
seq(X^2,X,1,3would return
Code: [Select]
{1,4,9}

The TI manual is very unoptimized, but how would you use sum( the way you used it? Doesn't the first argument have to be a list?
Oh, sorry, I thought it was used for summing a list.  If you're not using a list, then TI's correct.  My bad. :)

I didn't mean the sum(seq([exp],[var],[start],[finish] combination. I meant that I didn't understand the bit of code ztrumpet suggested:

]WHAT?!
This was in TI's manual?  I hope they know that sum([exp],[start],[finish] is smaller and faster.  What was TI thinking! :D
Which manual was it, 2.43 or 2.53?

It doesn't work on my TI-83 Plus, for some reason. It can only take a list as the first argument. Is it different on the 84 Plus series?

No, it's only for a list.  I was thinking the sum(seq([exp],[var],[start],[finish] was to be used on a list (with a list as [exp] ).  Sorry about this misunderstanding. :)
