Re: TIB: += function in TI Basic?
The best and easiest way to do that i Ti-Basic is to use the 'For('
command.
the syntax is
For(variable,start,end,increment)
To accomlish what you want set 'start' to zero, call 'variable'
'total', and make 'increment' 'i'.
then use 'end' how you wish.

Avoid shortcuts. They always take too much time in the long run.
