I'm new...-ish
« on: October 02, 2010, 01:52:25 pm »
...yeah. I don't have lot to say, actually. D:

Got my first calculator about a week ago (a TI-84+ SE, I think it has the extra RAM pages but I'm not sure) and registered here about a week ago. I've programmed some small programs in TI-BASIC but I have no idea what kind of stuff I want to program right now D:

And I'm kinda wondering what's up with all the peanuts and lobsters. s:

welcome to omnimaga.

pokemon ftw, especially magikarp

and the peanuts and lobsters are a long standing meme, you'd have to wait for some older members to educate you more properly about that

ohithur
if you're looking for somewhere to start and already have some knowledge about the workings of basic then you should check out quigibo's Axe Parser. it's a good way of transitioning from basic to asm, if that's your goal, and is fast enough to make wonderful games on it's own. where did you buy that calc? if it isnt used then i doubt it has the RAM pages.

oh, and here are some peanuts(dozens of slightly different iterations are to follow, im sure):

It's used, but it was in mint condition when I got it.

Yeah, I was going to start with that soon. I think I should program a bit more in TI-BASIC first, though.

Metakarp is just the second best Pokémon. Everyone knows Metapod is better :D

Or Splash battles :P

By the way, welcome and hope you enjoy your stay. I'm sure DJ will pop in here soon to educate you on the standing memes since it was brought up :P

Do you have any programming experience besides for a couple weeks of TI-BASIC?

Any interesting program ideas so far?

I prefer the unknown. I'm not much of a pokemon fan, but I would either go with unknown or mew :)

Welcome here!  What's the last letter of the serial number (on the back of the calc)?  That'll tell us if it has the extra RAM or not. :)
I recommend sticking with TI Basic for a while if it's your first programming language - It's about as easy to learn as anything. :)

I've been using Game Maker and its built-in programming language for about two years.

It's called Unown, not unknown ;_;

A. I was a bit confused at first, though, since there also was an S earlier in the serial number.

Welcome here :D

I can't wait to see what you will come up with in the future in terms of programming :D

As for peanuts they are indeed a local meme. That happens in every intro thread (or almost) since early 2006 and happened on UTI for a short while in 2007-08 :P

Yup, it has extra RAM. :)
