Anyone know of any useful CALC programs?

So for all those taking the AB/BC tests next Wednesday, do you know of any useful calc programs? I desperately need a Euler's method program for a TI-89 if anyone knows where it is online... But just post any programs you know of on this thread that would apply to the AP Calc tests...

That would be really trivial to write yourself.. just so you know.

Also, a program for newton's method, trap/left/mid/right sums, etc, might be helpful.

I wouldn't even know where to start to write a program

The midpoint/left/rights sums would be a great prog to have... So if anyone knows where it is available, please let me know!!

Also, is Newton's method going to be on the BC?? I never learned it.

It's not that hard to memorize Euler's method. It's hard to understand at first, but if you spend about 25-30 minutes doing problems from your textbook or from old AP tests you should get the hang of it.

Nope.

Euler's is strictly a Calc BC topic right?

On my calculator I have the quadratic formula program.
Basically it asks me what a,b, and c are and calculates what x is. Saves time often.

I might put in all the inverse trigs, and integrals of all the trig functions like sin, cos, tan. This way if i forgot I know where to look.
