Parts of the TriCoder programming screen

Before you start programming the TriCoder, it helps to know what the TriCoder is asking you at each step.

Prompt

< PROGRAM #

1

PROMPT

01

>

The word PROMPT describes what prompt in Program #1 you are working on; in the example above we are at the first prompt. The
01 tells us what prompt number we are working on. If we were working on prompt 03, the text would look like this:

< PROGRAM #

1

PROMPT

03

>

The fields beneath

< PROGRAM #

1

PROMPT

01

>

are where the individual parameters of the program are defined.

To navigate through the program you use the down arrow key or the Enter key to move down.

To move from prompt to prompt you use the right arrow and left arrow keys.
