Calc Programming?

Re: Calc Programming?

yeah but TIs dont use BASIC. They use coding similar to basic but it is still different. Programming on a calculator is the most awkward random thing. All i ever got on mine where programs so simply put in information for algebra equations and it gave me an answer.

Re: Calc Programming?

Hehe, I use a nifty little app called SIDE (small IDE) on my TI-92+. It lets me do C code ON the calc itself . I also do a bit of ASM work on there and use another compiler to make those files. I can't recall the site i got SIDE off of, but it's a great app.

If you have a 92+ or an 89, I have a nice little window manager for them similar to fluxbox on Linux (my desktop of choice). I'll have to get the code uploaded on my server sometime and let you have a look if you want.

Re: Calc Programming?

Yeah I program my calc. I made DDR for the calculator actually. I also made different physics engines called "The Dot Game" things like moon gravity, black holes, etc.
THe only reason I don't do it more is that calculator basic is a very slow language, because its a high level language on a almost completely low-level system, causing massive slow down on games.

Re: Calc Programming?

Yeah, but you can (with a few tricks) squeeze a pretty good speed out of it. Reflex Revolution ran at a good 2fps (for a basig game like that it is VERY good) and I made a R2 clone this morning that clocks in at at 6fps. And this is on the slowest of the 2 calc options (83+ or 83+SE/84+/SE)

I do have a bit of 89 programming I do, but I don't need any real managers, the only thing I use it for are odd things like mt low level HTML reader and for things like a brain**** reader

i made lot more programs a long while ago but those were my most recent ones

Re: Calc Programming?\ saving on a calc

the best (and only as far as i know) way to save on the calc is to group the progs . if you have a large amount of archive you can GROUP them and prevent any loss of data in the calculator

Re: Calc Programming?

My fav game ever on my TI-86 was Whack-A-Goomba. Oh man had a lot of fun on that. But I really only altered other code or programmed basic formulas in TIBASIC.

A friend made Tetris out of Casio's Basic... o___O
