Sometimes I wonder if TI is actually just letting us have fun by purposefully leaving things up to us to come up with... I mean, seriously, they have it in the OS to be able to do this yet it isn't implemented... sheesh.

It gives me a memory error.

Sorry I am late to getting back to y'all, I am having to fix the charger on my computer, but yes, it will be an actual language instead of a library.

xkcd I assume? That has got to be the best comic out there. (not that specific one, but xkcd in general)

Yeah, I've already seen them all, so I can always come up with an xkcd when context's right

Lol, imagine TI in this comic:
-img removed for space reasons-

"What, you need more than 100 pixels in any direction? What the hell are you doing with these things, programming?"

No, of course not. Why would we program calcs?

But seriously, why did graphing calc companies add ASM/C originally anyway? Not that I'm complaining

I remember back when I had that laptop-like (TI-99?) it said basically that it was implemented because they couldn't make everything related to math, so they gave us a means to make what we needed. They just provided the means to use it, we made what fit our needs best.

Crap, double post. Sorry 'bout that

I say sorry to ASH_BAD ALVIN. Sorry. I've just been weird lately, so thanks for letting me blow off some steam in a non-violent way

Ahhhg!  Hex will BURN HAHAHAHA
You're that person form UTI that likes Hex, right?  Trust me, it's cool, but you're not gonna make a ASM game in it
But if you like it, go ahead


I will program my 84+ plus as well after this, because I doubt that the C sdk will be on-calc, so I will probably only program my prizm at home.

Wait, WHAT? I have been making games in hex for over a year now. They are just for practice and I do not like to upload my games. I am very insulted by something like that. I can program in hex very fluently now. I will say that I am not up to the same level of game making as a lot of people that I have seen here, but I can make games. Plus, have you gotten the chance to check out my SpriteLib program? I will admit that it isn't as good as Celtic 3, but I am still adding to it and it is not what could be called a beginners project. I understand that it isn't worth the time and effort if you have a computer to work with, but I have only recently had one to work with. I am not going to give up the skill I spent two years to learn from looking at small opcodes and a chart. I do not like that my ability to quickly code, without needing to use two devices and several sets of software, to be able to code quickly and to be able to disassemble as I read the hex from programs, apps, and the OS, to be taken as a pointless, unworthy skill.

Sorry about that, all. I have just been a little touchy about that subject, especially after reading the "Our Problem" thing. I don't like the thought of programmers discouraging other programmers, especially when it is about something they do not really know. I know you didn't mean it, but honestly? Telling me "it's cool, but you're not gonna make a ASM game in it" is very insulting to me, especially after all I have done to prove myself. But thanks, now I have reason to ignore the rest of the programming community for a while, now, and get back to some of my own projects and help out where people actually have questions and where there are BASIC programmers who were like myself and searched for months to find small opcodes that just turned out to be impractical in the end. I have been gladly providing code for them to put into their calculator and it is appreciated because for whatever reason, whether it is because they do not have access to software downloads on a school or public computer, or they do not have a cable. And I can make code quickly and tailored to fit so that they do not need to search hundreds of programs finding one that fits well enough, only to put it through a disassembler. Plus, I have other projects to work on as it is, including an interpreted programming language (That I plan to make games with), SpriteLib, a few random things for friends like a password protection program that isn't as annoying as some that require constantly inputting a password every time you want to change a program you are working on unless.

Again, sorry for the rant

Exactly! They are pretty much the largest producers, or at least one of the first, to make hand-held, programmable devices and they never thought to take advantage of what we have to offer. If they ever make a device like I mentioned, I would want it to include TI-BASIC and assembly, the same way they have, as well as C for those who are more comfortable with that.
