I've been thinking about getting a new calculator; either a CX or a Prizm. I know each has their advantages and disadvantages. Which one should I get (and why)? Also, money is not a problem. I have enough money to get either one.

I made a logo for my website. What do you think?

Ideas? Suggestions? Comments?
Btw, I made this with PowerPoint.

(First off, iVenom told me about this. )
Have you ever heard of Homestuck? If you haven't, Pesterchum is the fictional chat client they use to communicate. Someone made a read version of it! Here's the MSPA thread:

Who here has pesterchum or has just gotten it? What's your chumhandle (username)?
Mine is cardboardCalculator.
This is how your nickname is set up: two words, one is lowercase, the other one's first letter is uppercase. For example: lowercaseUppercase.

First off, esolang is short for esoteric programming language.
Spyrodecimal is an esolang where all the commands are numbers.

Here are all the commands:

0 - Pauses the program for 1/10 second.
1 - Prints the ASCII equivalent of the number in memory.
n - Prints the actual number in memory.
2 - Increases the number in memory.
3 - Decreases the number in memory.
4 - Gets one character of input, and stores it in memory.
5 - Prints a new line.
6 - Generates a random number between 1 and 256 and stores it in memory.
7 - Moves the program reader back for the amount in memory. For example, if 5 is in memory, it will move back 5 spaces.
8 - Erases the memory.
9 - Same as 7, except moves the reader forward instead of backward.
q - Quits the interpreter.
x - quits the program, but not the interpreter.
s - Stores the current memory value into one of six variables (a, b, c, d, e, f). Variables are not affected by 8. Syntax (s<var> example: sa)
r - Recalls the value stored into one of six variables (a, b, c, d, e, f) and stores it in memory. Syntax (r<var> example: ra)

I'm currently working on the interpreter (in C++).
Any ideas are welcome!

My friend had a Sentry CA756, but the EXE button stopped working, and he gave it to me (but I can't fix it). These graphing calcs are about $20, with a very small screen and only 10 program spaces. Yes, 10. You reference them by using Prog, like Prog 1. It's looping capabilities are lbl, goto, ISZ, and DSZ. Sad, isn't it? And it doesn't even have a function catalog! You have to access function with a Shift- or Shift-Alpha- key sequence. To change the calc's mode, you have to press MODE, MODE-SHIFT, or MODE-ALPHA and a number.   This thing is awful! So, without further ado, here are some pix!

Here's the awful small screen and the label that tells all the calc modes.



Sorry about this one being blurry, but here's the keyboard. As you can see, almost all of the keys have SHIFT, ALPHA, and SHIFT-ALPHA labels on them.



Here's a close-up of the arrow keys. Notice how they stole the "REPLAY" and "EXE" from Casio.



The "screenshots" on the quick reference aren't even screenshots. They didn't even attempt to make them look real.



The battery. Notice how the calc only needs one battery to work, so they just glued foam to the other contact!



This is the inside of the calc.



The main (and only) chip is, of course, buried under epoxy.



Here you can see that foamed-up battery slot also has terminals running to the circuit board, just like the other one!



The only thing holding the LCD in is the back cover pressing against it. I can freely pull it out of its slot (that is too big, the LCD can wobble all around in the slot).



Another shot of the calc, this time with the LCD flopping.


You have just witnessed how awful this cheap, $20 calc actually is. It's definitely worth less than $20

I just made a library for Python 2.7 that allows you to easily create IRC bots.
Here is the source code:
import socket
import string
import time
s = socket.socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM)

def connect(server, port=6667):
    s.connect((server, 6667))

def ready():
    x = s.recv(2048)
    if "376" in x:
        return True
    else:
        return False

def register(nick):
    s.send("NICK %s\r\n" % nick)
    s.send("USER  %s 8 *  : %s\r\n" % (nick, nick))

def join(channel):
    s.send("JOIN %s\r\n" % channel)

def send_msg(reciever, message):
    s.send("PRIVMSG %s :%s" % (reciever, message))

def send_raw(data):
    s.send(data)

def recieve():
    x = s.recv(2048)
    if x != "":
        return x

def username():
    x = s.recv(2048)
    return x.split("!")[0].strip(":")

def hostmask():
    return x.split("!")[1].split(" ")[0]

def message(message):
    x = s.recv(2048)
    msg = x.rpartition("PRIVMSG %s :" % (channel))
    return msg

def format_recv():
    return "<%s> %s" % (username(), message())

def timestamp():
    return "%s:%s:%s" % (time.localtime()[3], time.localtime()[4], time.localtime()[5])

def op(channel, reciever):
    s.send("MODE %s +o %s\r\n" % (channel, reciever))

def deop(channel, reciever):
    s.send("MODE %s -o %s\r\n" % (channel, reciever))

def voice(channel, reciever):
    s.send("MODE %s +v %s\r\n" % (channel, reciever))

def devoice(channel, reciever):
    s.send("MODE %s -v %s\r\n" % (channel, reciever))

def ban(channel, reciever):
    s.send("MODE %s +b %s!*@*\r\n" % (channel, reciever))

def kick(channel, nick, reason=None):
    s.send("KICK %s %s %s\r\n" % (channel, nick, reason))

def data_present(check):
    x = s.recv(2048)
    if check in x:
        return True
    else:
        return False

def nick(nick):
    s.send("NICK %s")

def disconnect(reason="Disconnected."):
    s.send("QUIT :%s" % reason)
    s.close()

if "PING" in s.recv(2048):
    ping = s.recv.rstrip()
    ping = split(ping)
    s.send("PONG %s" % ping[1])
Here's all the commands you can currently use:

connect(server) - Connects to the IRC server.
ready() - Returns true if the end of the MOTD is reached.
register(nick) - Registers with the nick.
join(channel) - Joins the channel.
send_msg(reciever, message) - Sends a message to reciever.
send_raw(data) - Sends raw IRC data to the server.
recieve() - Returns the IRC data recieved if it is not empty.
username() - Returns the username of the last message sent.
hostmask() - Returns the hostmask of the last message sent.
message() - Returns the last message sent.
format_recv() - Returns the last message sent like you would see it in an IRC client.
timestamp() - Returns the current time as a string.
op(channel, reciever) - Ops the reciever.
deop(channel, reciever) - Deops the reciever.
voice(channel, reciever) - Gives the reciever voice.
devoice(channel, reciever) - Removes voice from the reciever.
ban(channel, reciever) - Bans the reciever.
kick(channel, reciever[, reason]) Kicks the reciever.
disconnect([reason]) - Disconnects from IRC.
nick(new_nick) - Changes your bot's nick.
data_present(check) - Returns true if <check> is in the reciving IRC data.

It also includes a ping responder, so your bot should never time out.

Soon, I'll attach the .py file and an installer batch file.
Yay! Download the install.zip, unzip it, run install.bat, and yay!

Bug reports and suggestions welcome!

I've looked on eBay and Amazon, but I just cannot find the TI-62 Galaxy and the TI-95 Procalc for a "buy it now" reasonable price.

Anyone know a (American) website that sells these calculators?

I've been trying to learn C++, but with an IDE/Compiler that is refusing to work (or maybe I'm too n00bish to figure it out ) it's kinda hard.
I set the default compiler to Cygwin GCC, set all the toolchain executables (C compiler -> gcc.exe, C++ compiler -> g++.exe), and typed in some code in my current project. It's just a very simple program:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
    int a = 5;
    int b = 6;
    a = a + 5;
    int result = a + b;
    cout << "The result is " << result;
    return 0;
}(Also I think the numbering is broken on the code tags)
When I click Build and Run, I get a command prompt window with the following:
      4 [main] ? 2488 handle_exceptions: Exception: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION

Press any key to continue.And in the build log I get:

Anyone know what's wrong here? Any way I can fix it?
