They are needed when you port BASIC to the other calcs.  They check the 
programs for matching parens before tokenizing (and running) them.
I know that the TI-92 and the TI-85 does this.  Larry apparently thinks 
the '83 does too.  Does it?  I thought you had a TI-83.
If you do not close the parens and your calculator makes such a check, 
(probably not since you've never had that problem) it will immediately 
report an error when you run it, like "Missing )", or something like 
that.
