Hello all,
Today all we had time for was to finish checking homework.

As promised I am posting a document showing you tips on using the TI calculator:

Tim, on page 6, read under "To Sum a Sequence" to find out how to input a summation into the TI.  Basically it is just like how I showed you in class, except we messed up the syntax.
