C++ is possible actually, to a certain extent :

« on: November 11, 2012, 05:28:26 pm »
Is a z80 processor going to be enough for driving a color screen? Or will we see some not-shitty screen drivers (at last :O)? I wonder how fast the processor is going to be...
I have asked for the frequency, but I'm not sure I'll get an answer :D

Yes, I got confirmed it's a z80.

More details/answers are coming "soon" and HD photos in early January.

Yup, this is the git code and is for the alpha version so far that's why it's not fully tested and especially not "compiled" to the FormulaPro.tns file on the repo (which is the stable 1.3) ;)
I'll see how I can restrict the existence-check to the subcategory :)

So I have a question, Is there a way to totally delete an object from memory, not just from the table that contains the object?
I wonder this because table.remove only removes the object from the table, yet it still exists in memory.
try a garbage collection ?

See http://lua-users.org/wiki/GarbageCollectionTutorial
and here on how to use it : http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#pdf-collectgarbage

It "may" be not as hard as we can think at first.
In fact, we need to make the line generate a system of equation, and parse the result.
Also make a test to know if it's CAS or not, in order to fully profit of the device's capabilities (and know what [not] to use !).

Jim and/or I will keep you updated here :)

Using the latest git-version and a Nspire CX CAS v3.1 calculator, I have a serious problem.

I have a set of 4 principal equations in applied hydraulics.
The only way I get an answer is when I implement all four into one. (look Missing D #4)
If I implement them into two-tree equations and providing I give f (provided by Missing D #4), I get the desired D. (look Missing D #2 & #3)
If I have all four, and I provide the D, I'll get the f, but if I provide the f only, I don't get D. (look Missing D #1)

It seems to be a solver issue. Does FormulaPro uses the built-in CAS solvers and if not, is there a way to select the desired solver?

I haven't had time to look exactly at your code but it "looks" good.

- Can you try to go to the solver in whatever subcategory has a problem.
- Then Ctrl-I to make a new tab, and look at the variable list (Ctrl-L or Var). Do you see what you'd expect ?
   If not something's wrong on your side when entering the data/formula/units/vars. If yes, it's weird...

For the solving, we use nSolve() (so that it works with non-cas models too), as you can see here : https://github.com/adriweb/EEPro-for-Nspire/blob/master/2%20-%20%20FormulaPro/1%20-%20FPSolver.lua#L4 (line 4)
You can try to comment that line 4 and un-comment the one above, just to try ?

I've asked Jim to come see this too, maybe he'll have some ideas...


(By the way :

- your category is #2, meaning you actually removed the original #2 one, right? (Because IIRC, I made something to check if there are conflicts while building the DB, on the latest 1.4a version, but hopefuly you got that version)
- Version 1.4 (latest git version) is only on the source files on Github, but it's not the one on the .tns files there. What do you have written on the script ? 1.3 or 1.4 ?

This message means something's wrong on the computer side. Sometimes because of multiple Java processes being frozen or something.
Try rebooting.

on z80 it's Input, on Nspire, it's Request (and RequestStr)

Why did they replace this nice boot screen with the ugly b/w animation it is in the released CX?  O.O
In the CX, it has a TI background "image" (black-red) and the loading bar is blue, IIRC. You must think of the Clickpad/Touchpad Nspires :P

I think you can just check the parity of the resultant product, so [[5][6][7][5]] = [[1][0][1][1]], as desired.

Thanks,

but how do you get from [[5][6][7][5]] to [[1][0][1][1]] here directly ?

(is it related to its binary representation, 1011000101011 ?)

Edit : ahem, I feel bad, it's mod for each number.


This is because xor on bits is basically addition mod 2.

Yep, I actually saw something about addition mod 2 but looking at example I only "saw" a xor being calculated ;)
