At the time of my Original post ( Aug 24 ), I was still unaware of another Fully working Android [ ARM ] Platform TI-Nspire Emulator like the ( now ) Well established [ Firebird ] by
@Vogtinator at [
https://github.com/nspire-emus/firebird/releases ], ( originally announced on omnimaga.org at [
https://www.omnimaga.org/ti-nspire-projects/new-ti-nspire-emulator/ ] ), and for such the [ Nspiroid ] Project [
https://www.omnimaga.org/ti-nspire-projects/nspiroid-ti-nspire-emulator-on-android-(zenfone-5)/30/ ] by [ SpiroH ] at that time seemed to Me the very First TI-Nspire running emulator for [ ARM ] architecture ( which I could install on my devices ).
I did not meant to diminish ( nor enlarge ) the Valuable work of Any author ( in detriment of Others ) at all ! since as I've have already stated, [ Any ] work towards providing Improvments on the Calculator Arena is a [ More ] Than Well Expected contribution, specially Emulators, since they represent a [ Definitive ] step taken forward, as Hardware inevitably will have a finite production cycle, but the Emulated Software may be futurely Ported to many other architectures ( perpetuating the "species" long after the original Calculators were not physically available anymore ).
I've have been Captivated by Calculators, since 13 years old, and on such long road have been the Proud owner of many Gems from Texas and HP like TI-59, HP-67, HP-41C, TI-89, HP-50g and now TI-Nspire and HP-Prime, to name a few.
All such models have allowed me uncountable hours of mathematical discoveries and insights which if I had not one of them available at the right time, such math relationships could have been missed at all ...
Most of the vintage code written for such old models, would be simply Lost, if Brave and Dedicated Developers did not invest their precious time in providing Emulators ...
My original post had the sole intention of [ Inform ] others of the existence of Another piece of software which at that time might be unaware by some potential interested users.
I did not had the intention to Promote ( or "merchandise" ) any ( open or closed ) software in detriment of others, since by my very first days in the Calculator arena, I have been completely Open to Any and All directions related to the improvement of Portable Calculation abilities, from any manufacturer or software developer.
The main ( original ) purpose of the Web ( as idealised by Lee ) was to provide an open platform to [ Inform ] and make information Freely available to All ...
I do express my Apologies if my original ( Aug 24 ) Post sounded Biased towards one specific piece of valuable work, in spite of the Hole Constellation of Many other Shinning contributions ( which stone by stone, have been providing Calculators a more than revigorated and extended life spam, now with the advent of New portable devices like Tablets and Smartphones ).
I would also let the Moderator free to Remove this or any Past posting comments I had provided with the sole purpose of providing interesting New Information to potential others, since at Aug 24, Nspiroid for Android [ ARM ] platform had just been released ( while the Nspiroid Android [ x86 ] Project had been arround for a much more longer time, as were the [ nspire_emu-qt ] Project so called at that time and which have now finally turned into [ Firebird ] ).
Surelly, now knowing of the existence of [ Firebird ] and specially on such vast array of architectures, I will certainly not only Install it, but futurely Indicate and Recommend it to many Potential interested colleagues and students.
Being a bit off topic I close this post presenting the link to another valuable Project [ KhiCAS ] [
https://tiplanet.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=166225&lang=en ] from [ Bernard Parisse ] ( author of Giac/XCAS ) and available for download at [
https://tiplanet.org/forum/archives_voir.php?id=79135 ], providing the [ First ] full implementation of Arbitrary Precision Floating Point Arithmetic on a [ Calculator ] platform.
It's interesting to note that [ Giac ] by Parisse is also the choosen CAS adopted by HP-Prime, which unfortunately have opted to Not Fully port it to Prime, leaving the [ Longfloat ] library aside...
Thus [ KhiCAS ] allows TI-Nspire ( CAS or Non CAS ) to become the very first [ Calculator ] not only having More then one CAS system, but also the First one with Arbitrary Precision Floating Point ability, which were only originally available ( from the same author ) on Android ARM architectures by means of the [ XCAS Pad ] Package, and similar others like Maxima for Android.
Its surelly a more than a bit "Dated" information, but some Potential TI-Nspire for Android Emulator seeker which may reach this Post ( by googling just for Nspire Android Emulators ), may be still unaware of the [ KhiCAS ] Project at all.
Once more my apologies for such Long posting ( which I hope may be not end up as a complete waste of others time ).
For owners of [ HP-Prime ] the following pages [
https://www.tricider.com/brainstorming/2eKfifdjarx ] & [
http://www.hpmuseum.org/forum/thread-1817.html ] presents up-to-date list of Suggestions and Bug Reports for such machine, which unlike Texas Instruments, HP personnel do indeed seem to regularly follow up, and incorporate reported bug corrections or user suggested features in their subsequent Firmware updates.
Yours Sincerely, with my Very Best Wishes to All,
Prof. Ricardo Duarte
