Phew, after a while, I managed to make my first program

print("Enter number: ")
max_value = io.read("*number")           --Get maximum random number
if type(max_value) == "number" then      --If the user enters a number

  math.randomseed( os.time() )
  random_number = math.random(max_value) --Define a number
 
  while true do
    print ("Guess a number: ")
    tried_number = io.read("*number")
    if type(tried_number) == "number" then
      if tried_number == random_number then
        print ("You Won")
        break
      end
    end
  end

else
  print("Not a Number!")
  end
I will still add a few checks and other stuff, but this language is not really for me.

EDIT:

Yay, added a few cool stuff:

print("Enter number: ")
max_value = io.read("*number")           --Get maximum random number
if type(max_value) == "number" then      --If the user enters a number

  math.randomseed( os.time() )
  random_number = math.random(max_value) --Define a number
 
  while true do
    print ("Guess a number: ")
    tried_number = io.read("*number")
    if type(tried_number) == "number" then
      if tried_number == random_number then
        print ("You Won")
        break
      elseif tried_number > random_number then
        print ("Try a lower number")
      else
        print ("Try a higher number")
      end
    else
      print ("Not a number!")
    end
  end

else
  print("Not a number!")
  end

I'm more fluent in Lua syntax than most other languages, it's easy when you memorize it.

Then perhaps you can help me please?

The problem I have is the nSpire platform, I can't even make a loop to draw a screen.

Perhaps I should link you to the forum where this topic is.

Right here.

get_num = function()
  print("Enter number: ")
  max_value = io.read("*number")
end
if type(max_value) == number then
  for i=1,max_value,1 do print(i) end
else
  print("Not a Number!")
endThis returns "Not a Number!".

get_num = function()
  print("Enter number: ")
  max_value = io.read("*number")
end
if type(max_value) == number then
  for i=1,max_value,1 do print(i) end
else
  print("Not a Number!")
  break
end
This returns "lua: helloworld.lua:10: no loop to break near 'end'."

That code gave this to me:

lua: helloworld.lua:1: unexpected symbol near ';'

I have no usb cable anymore, and I'm trying to do lines; just before vertical rotation.
If someone can say me how to convert xyz point + xy rotation to a xy point ... It'll be great better for the project.

You can use SourceCoder or TokenIDE to tokenize that code

Either way, I'd love a screenshot when you can.

So, I got some more of it and started coding, based on aeTIo's sample.

.TILEMAPR
.Tile data:
[FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF->Pic1
[F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0
[22222222->Pic1TL
[20000002
[20000002
[22222222

Repeat getKey(15)
.Draw the tilemap
For(A,0,3)
For(B,0,3)
If {Pic1TL+(A*4)+B}->C
-1->C
Pt-On(B*8,A*8,Pic1+(C*8))
End
End
DispGraph
End
End
But why is this code a lot of dots and two blocks on the right. I don't really get how changing Pic1TL affects the code.

EDIT: I actually think I got it, I'm changing half of a byte, and not an entire byte.

Yeah, changing bytes worked better.

When there is an error message it scrolls down rapidly to a line of code, so it is possible. (Lots of hackers hanging around here  )

If you're using BASIC, one way to do that is to put a Pause or something at the end of the program, then run the program and get to that Pause and press ON to break > 2:Goto. You could also install DoorsCS 7 to use its Instant Goto.

How to use the Instant Goto in DCS7?

Imagine the memory of your calculator is this:

Memory: AB0123456789ABCDEF00B0231253210214125124123123123122312AF2131231201012312312
Address: 0123456789...

Str1 is a pointer to the address 2, where the image starts in the memory.

(this is not really what happens, just an example).
