Mine is still off, I had over 300. It's not that bad, though, if you don't want to bother to fix it.

Not valid, then. Too bad...  It would have been amazing (and I would've been very happy for you) if that had worked. Oh well, it was a nice try. Better luck next time. At least the answer to your original question was yes. Have fun with math, anyway.

Nope, even w/v0.3.0, leaving the closing parenthesis off of something like getKey(12) and also getKey(0) throws a bad symbol error.
Edit: Quigibo already clarified and was referring to something slightly different than I was. Ninja'd, I suppose.

Since we're talking about math, do you mind showing me your proof? I'd like to see it personally, as I'm always interested to learn something new about math.

Thanks for the explanation, I'm sure a lot of people were waiting for this. Thought I was already somewhat aware of this (what's up with DJ), a full explanation has him my full sympathy. (I don't know if he's looking for sympathy, so I'll leave it at that.) And yeah, we still like you, Kevin. Your part of this community, and that'll never change (you cannot leave! ) Best wishes to you, DJ!

Yeah, it should be valid.
meishe: squidgetx is referring to proofs by induction, which typically work by proving that statement p is true for x=1, and p is true for x+1 if p is true for x. Therefore, p is true for all natural numbers. He's asking if it's valid to start at x=0, rather than x=1. I said yes

Is the generated code actually smaller though? I'd think an add would be faster and smaller than squaring it. This isn't BASIC I should look over the code myself for optimizations...

I'll try again A 16-bit number (two bytes) is the type of number generally used in Axe (one byte numbers are used, though with slightly less frequency) Fill( takes two arguments. The first one is the address from which the fill starts. The second one is how many bytes to fill. Both of these arguments are 16-bit numbers. The first one is a pointer, the second one just a number. However, despite their very different roles, they look exactly the same to the compiler. So a check is impossible. Also, the overhead necessary to check if you're doing something silly like trying to write to flash (anywhere from the first 16384 to 32768 bytes are flash) is too large and unwieldy. Note that ASM, or Axe in this case, gives up safety checks for speed.

That's because both the arguments to Fill( are 16-bit numbers, and such numbers can be construed as pointers.
What Fill(200,L1 does is fill L1 bytes starting after the 200th byte, which is something very undesirable.
Basically, there is no way to detect it, because the arguments are indistinguishable.

That's what I got out of it; I guess we'll have to wait for sanity to be restored...

Hurray! Progress! I can't wait.

You never told us, Sir.
If it is your birthday, I wish you a happy one.
