What is press-to-test?

Its a mode on the nspire to disable functions that can be too powerful to use on tests

It also disables the ability to use programs

News / Re: Rules and positions update

ONe thing I noticed when reading the rules is that the rule for double posting has changed to one day of inactivity. I thnk one day might be a little short.

Otherwise though I think the new changes are great.

I dont mean to be unhelpful but this is one of the things that makes teachers and TI want to lock down the calcs. The disabling of Press to Test allows for cheating on almost every standardized test. In the future I'd advise not to ask how to disable it in class and more of the is it possible if you accidently enabled it and dont have access to a computer or another calc to use if its possible to get out

Remember that not only teachers can enable PPT.  There are only 3 people in my school with any type of nspire.  Imagine how annoying it is to be PPT'd and not be able to get it undone.
yes that would be the situation id see it as being useful in. I had just seen the question as asking how to get out of it after a teacher enabled it

I'd think thered be a way to make it look like its running PTT i know there used to be a ndless program to do that. not sure if it would work with lua. you might have to wait for the release of ndless 3.x

its also pretty good at recognizing when to graph something it works for y=sin(x) y =sin(x) y= sin(x) y = sin(x) f(x) = sin(x) and who knows what else

Is there a way where I can use this command in the normal calculation page instead of opening the program just to solve it?
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
Quote from: Gekiha on December 07, 2011, 07:46:17 am
And is there a way where I can rename that command into something easier to type :P, like.. Fq or something?
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.
