Meh. Call me materialist or something but none of the prizes interest me  I already have a CX CAS and a 84+CSE  So yeah, I think I won't try to overcome my laziness

Maybe they go from 300 to 470 but you misread the 3 as a 9 But yeah, I agree with you, it is hard to read. I easily got the first part but soon gave up when I tried to get the second one  (not that bad for you, that makes one less contestant )

I'd just like to congratulate everyone on getting to 5 pages without a flame war. 
I think this prove we really can have a religious debate without going off the deep end.
True this. I think the main reason for that is that for once the debate is in its own topic and not derailing another one, which already upsets the topic starter but also pushes people to try to convince everyone quickly to end the off topic as soon as possible, which obviously doesn't lead to a calm discussion

Ok. So then this can be said:
"How was the world created?"
"It wasn't. End of story."
No need for God then.
Note: I am still not saying "don't believe in God", you believe in anything you want. I just say that God is a possibility but only a possibility among others, maybe there is a God, maybe not, maybe there are two Gods, I don't know
That is right, and that is why I stated:
This is not at all proof of a God-- this would be like saying, "if wizards existed, they could perform magic, so therefor magic must exist" without proving that wizards exist.
Oops, sorry, I have some problems getting all the sentences in topics that are not about everyday life things since English is not my primary language. I just get the main idea of every post but I sometimes miss one sentence or two Also, strangely enough, calculators are now in the "everyday life things" category (but this is getting off-topic )

Also, it seems that religious people tend to generate excuses to dismissively get rid of any challenges. For example
"How was God created?"
"He wasn't. End of story."
I actually find that to be a rather neat argument. Like harold said earlier, it is definitely interesting to think about something that is seemingly impossible (like something creating itself). At the least, it is a really creative exercise in logic, and at best, you might be shocked to learn that it is completely possible (this is how some scientific theories were stumbled upon, I believe).
So what if something "created itself?" What limitations would it have? I would posit that it wouldn't be restricted. It could be something simple, unthinking, or it could be something all powerful. This is not at all proof of a God-- this would be like saying, "if wizards existed, they could perform magic, so therefor magic must exist" without proving that wizards exist. However, for somebody that believes in a god or gods, this might serve as a plausible explanation. For the rest, this is just a fun exercise

but with maths you can go and redo all the work before to confirm its validity
It depends. There are some axioms in maths too, that can't be proved, like Peano's axioms, and a lot of things are based on it. So yeah, mathematics can be in some way compared to religion. The difference being that mathematics are used by phisicists to create useful things for our lives, like calculators, while religion, well I don't know what it does. Gives me a ticket for eternity ? Yeah, as long as eternity exists too, which is not proved either. Note: I am not saying "stop believing", just "let others believe what they want". I am not against the idea of a God somewhere, but the ideas of eternity or "being saved" and all seems weird to me.

Guys, stop trying to prove whether or not God exists. It is not possible, just like it'snot possible to prove evolution. Both God and evolution are something you must believe in to be sure they are true.
shmibs didn't try to prove that God didn't exist but on the contrary, he was like you saying that there was no point trying to prove that he exists and that all proofs were no proofs at all

And lol that native z80 entries can beat Nspire Basic, maybe you should have had an Ndless ASM/C category?
I think they didn't do that because that would have been a pain to time program 1: 0.0012 seconds program 2: 0.0041 seconds More seriously, congrats to everyone for entering the contest

If I had to choose, I'd choose either "right to left" or "left to right" since it allows more optimizations from the coder and is easier to code for you Left to right seems to me the best choice since it even allows optimization from one line to the other, like in Axe Now, if you prefer adding support for the usual order of operations, that is not a problem, but please just don't come up with a new order where the addition comes before the multiplication (like 3*4+1 == 3*(4+1))

I saw the screenshot on ticalc for this game and this made me want to try it. Too bad I don't have much time  . Anyway nice to see an update. Thanks  I just hope you already played any true Pokemon game because mine is not really explanative. It sort of assumes that you already know who you are, and what you must do Not because I think everyone already played but more because of lack of space -.-° But if you like it, you can write a review for it on ticalc Also correction, In english, allemand is German, not Deutsch. Deutsch is allemand in German. Of course maybe you meant to use it in German, but then you should keep things consistent and say Français too instead of French.
Oops Well as long as people know what I am talking about... Yeah, I'll change that in the next update, thanks for reporting

Sorry for double posting in such a short amount of time, but UPDATE
Just fixing that bug mentionned in the post above. That was coming from an old optimization fail I made a long time ago -.-°

Ok then, I'll put that Thanks again edit Weird, I was reported that the Pokemon Center and the shop actually lead to the "house", and I just tried it, indeed  Weird, I didn't touch those parts of the code, I'll check what's happening.
