Hello community,
I'm new here and just wanted to tell from start on, that I am a newbie if it comes to complicated programming and so on.
I bet this question was already asked in the forums but I didn't know what to search for.
I always had the inspiration to make programs or games.
Starting with some rolling mini games or programs to solve mathematical program.
But the thing was, CAS version 1.7 had some really low possibilities for making advanced programs and/or visualizing them.
Short time ago I downloaded Ndless 1.0 and read a bit about it. Wow it can start third party programs and emulators and so on.
So maybe now I can program something more interesting. So here is my question. How to I make a program for my CAS.
Which software has to be used and which language should it be. BASIC or C, and how to compile everything.
Sorry if this question might be dumb, but I really have no idea ^^


Thanks for attention,
Daniel

Thank you very much for the fast answer.

It would be for Windows if possible =]


P.S If possible, are there any sites like http://tibasicdev.wikidot.com/ that are made for total newbs to learn ARM?

Doesn't some stuff such as 3D require straight assembly, though? But again, the Nspire is 90 MHz so maybe it would still be fast. Also C is supposed to be easier to start with I think, not to mention such language knowledge is recommended to start with ASM later.

I was starting a game when I hit a key input problem, can someone optimize this code?
When I execute this I get glitches. It quits immediately or draws pixels then crashes. All of the libraries work, it's just this part!  

/BrownyTCat's test prog

#include <os.h>
#include "utils.h"
#include "keys.h"
#define MAX_ITER 16

asm(".string \"PRG\"\n");



int main(void) {

int i;
int lose = 0;

int playerX = 160;
int playerY = 100;


showSimpleDialogBox(
    "Ndless - Test Software",
    "-------------------------------\n"
    "Ndless C Demo\n"
    "Copyright 2010 by BrownyTCat\n"
    "-------------------------------\n"
    "ESC - Exit"
);


 for (i = 0; i < 0x0F; ++i) {
    fade(1);
    WAIT("0x1FFFFF", "fade");
  }
  



while (lose != 1 && !isKeyEscPressed())
  {
  
  setPixel(playerX,playerY,16)

    ;if (isKeyUpPressed())
    {
  setPixel(playerX,playerY,0)
  ;playerY = playerY - 1
    ;}
    else if (isKeyDownPressed())
    {
  setPixel(playerX,playerY,0)
  ;playerY = playerY + 1
    ;}
    else if (isKeyLeftPressed())
    {
  setPixel(playerX,playerY,0)
  ;playerX = playerX - 1
    ;}
    else if (isKeyRightPressed())
    {
  setPixel(playerX,playerY,0)
  ;playerX = playerX + 1
    ;}

}
  return 0;
}

setPixel's third argument only goes up to 15; therefore, 16 will crash.

No, 0 is darkest, 15 is blank, for a total of 16 shades. I don't know what happens when you pass 16 though. Does it mod out 16?

Can you post the contents of keys.h?

Does the dialog box at least appear?
