I found TI-BASIC a great place to start learning about programming. Not only is it safe (like everyone already said), but it's also really easy to get results quickly. You can figure it out purely by playing with it on your own and start making graphical programs without being taught anything - something I've not seen in any "serious" language I've tried to learn since.

Plus, it naturally leads into Axe, which (I'm told) leads into ASM when you start getting complicated with it :P

Hey there Omnimaga! I'm gendoku.

I've been lurking around the calculator programming community for years, but I never really posted until today. I used to be a hardcore TI-Basic and Axe developer but half a year back or so I took something of a forced hiatus from calculator programming. As such, I'm bound to be pretty rusty on anything calculator-related, at least until I get back into the swing of things.

Besides calculator programming, I'm also learning Java and hacking together an iOS game in Objective-C (aiming for a release date of late December if all goes well.) Expect me to start/mention way more projects than I finish.

So... yeah, that's pretty much it. How's it going? :P
