TI Z80 / Re: Cave Creeping
« on: November 28, 2009, 01:42:03 pm »
The engine looks good. Just needs nice graphics and some kind of game play I think. Something original is always great.

Just jumping and moving around doesn't make a game, just a demo. But that can be arranged easily. :)

*offtopic* I think the community needs more competitions to bring new coders...

TI-BASIC / Re: The best list compression method?
« on: November 28, 2009, 03:50:41 am »
I was playing around with some of the other variables.
A matrix (32*3) is exactly 875 bytes.
Now, is there a way to store complex numbers to said matrix?
I don't think it is possible. Also multiply an entire matrix by a number doesn't work too. This gives an error.

There are some time put on collecting the statistics to us... Still it was curious to see the results. I didn't have an idea that yAronet was that big.

I don't remember problems in loading to UTI forums...
But I rarely visit in the mornings.

Other Calculators / Re: Another TI fail
« on: November 22, 2009, 05:08:08 pm »
TI fails again. And it is going to fail relatively soon with the Nspire. ;D

Well that was bad, leaving teachers hanging for results... I wonder where are their minds.

They actually have an excellent community that could be their best advantage... I just wonder what goes in their minds.
PS/EDIT: ok the repetition was totally unintentional but for luck happened.

I only join if there is someone else that has not English as first language or second mother language. :P (half-kidding)

Well what you exactly talk about? Girls are cool, so cool is too vague.

Other Calculators / Re: Protected Programs
« on: November 21, 2009, 02:11:41 pm »
I have always wanted to know:

What are the point of BASIC protected programs.  I get their basic point, but why keep your code hidden away from everyone?
Actually, you can easily unlock the program with the many tools around.

Forgetting that, protected in games prevents some cheating. More determined cheaters, can unlock the program or just mess with lists blindly until find it.
Protected programs can avoid problems to some users and not bloat the edit menu of programs. If it is a finished program why edit? And if you want to learn from the code, just unlock. (you should put a note on readme that it is ok to see the code)

Great work in a good timing.
Amazing speed. Never underestimate TI-BASIC...

Simple but nice.

BASIC Shells aren't a new idea but these new ones are actually very good.

What is the episode about? Because first, I don't watch South Park much, since I don't have cable TV, and secondly, the website says it is restricted from viewing in my country due to copyrights restriction
my country sucks, too. j/k
There is a little resume of the episode bellow the warning of copyright.

My 4 AAA last at least a month on my TI-84+SE... And I use more than the normal use. I don't play many games at all, except the ones I am doing. :p

TI-BASIC / Re: Any reliable way to tell if a numbe is an integer in BASIC?
« on: November 17, 2009, 04:17:35 pm »
Instead of fpart(N) you can do:
N-int(N)
or
N-ipart(N

I haven't tested but give it a try.

lol! That's very nice!

How is the 81 so fast?
And faster than a 83. Does the IS>( command do so much difference?
I would like to compare the 81 and 83 with the same code.

Hardware wise, HP-49G/50G are FAR better than TI calcs. They both have a 203 MHz ARM processor, underclocked to much lower speed to save on battery. However, their full speed can be activated through ASM language. The problem with these calcs is that apparently they're not easy to use and the community is quasi nonexistent. As for Casio, there's a model with color screen, but no ASM support and discontinued (slower BASIC too) and the Casio FX-9860G, which is roughly the same speed (or close) as the 83+, has no Asm(/Send(9 command to run ASM libs in BASIC games so no way to run archived programs. Hardware-wise it's roughtly the same as a SE calc I think. The Casio community is bigger than the HP community, but still smaller than TI community (altough its activity didn't decrease as fast as the TI and HP community in 2006-08). Casios are used a lot because they're much cheaper than TI calcs, while still being able to do math programs and graphing students need.

Btw, I kinda like the Casio FX-9860G in some ways, though. The equivalent on Output( on it, despite not word-wrapping like on TI, is much faster than on the 83+. If you run Kucalc's add-on that sets the CPU speed to maximum (by default, the calc runs at around 10-12 MHz I think, instead of close to 16), the Output function gets so incredibly fast that even when displaying 3 lines of text with 3 output functions through a loop, I got close-to-flickerless grayscale
Maybe if there was someone trying they could hack? There could be impressive stuff with all that..

200 MHz, cool. But in full speed batteries last how many hours?
