Casio Calculators / Re: Low level hardware emulation
« on: March 21, 2011, 01:15:22 pm »
There is no way that took 15 minutes to render.  There's just... What the heck.  Okay, so is this the OS or hardwares' fault?  That's actually on the calc, right?  Could you show a video of that.  Maybe put a camera over it, and host a livestream or something? *shrugs*
It's the OS, no doubt about it. Drawing something like this in asm is probably about as fast as on an 8x calc.
Wow. So, CKOS or what?

EDIT: IE: Casio-Knight OS or what?
What do you mean?
lol, KOS for Casio calcs.  As in a new OS instead of the one that comes with the calc.
It would probably take a very long time until it becomes possible to make a third-party OS.
When we blame the OS, we really mean the Basic language. It's definitely possible to do faster stuff without a whole new OS, as we saw on the TI-83+.
The slowdown is part of the OS since the BASIC language is part of the OS, but just like you said, it's possible to fix it without a new OS - but it's still the OS's fault that drawing is slow.

also: I like quote pyramids.
Yeah, they are kinda fun aren't they.  So, we need either AXE or KOS for prizm calcs now.

So, is this dead, or do you just have to make up 12 days?

true.  Maybe a lowercase b/h?  or %/$?

I think %/$ would be a good idea. They're hardly used in other situations.

Unless we want to make them actual operators? :D

EDIT: Btw, who's actually working on this?
We don't actually have a physical calc yet, so it's mostly conceptual atm.

woot, I got quoted!  Nicely done, DeepThought.
Quoted again. Happy?
Very.

I agree, too. This would also essentially allow digit to string conversion, if say char(62) corresponds to 1 then char(61+x) corresponds to x. But, number to string conversion would still have to be added separately.

I'd recommend going with hex and standard ASCII. That'd mean that char(31) would return "1" and char(62) would return "b." It'd also make things like char(546869732069732066756e) really easy to parse if they were in hex rather than decimal.
agreed.  In fact, I like that a lot better.  But I like char(596F752772652072696768742C2074686973206973206C6F616473206F662066756E2E) better.

Where's the TL;DR?  j/k, read it all, and it was a nice post.

mine's my project and an invitation to join Walruses For the Consumption of Lobsters, Fish, and Yeong (WFCLFY)    ;D

O.o
yup. Currently, willrandship and I are members.
* turiqwalrus eats Qwerty.55
fixed ^

Just because Fishbot stabbed grammar, doesn't mean it still doesn't exist. ;-)
And I'm part of LOPN, so I can't join WFCLFY, sorry.

Ok then, everyday I'll guess it will be tomorrow, so the end of the world will be something like never. Or when our sun will explode, but it will happen far after our species will be extinct.

When I will die, the world will end for me.
Okay, that could work.  Wait, I wonder if it works for robots and such?  How about having a robot that says "The end of the world is tomorrow".  If it happens, then the robot was finally right! If not, well... What a pointless project.  <_<

Mine is only 246 characters.  I like keeping my signature fairly small.

Lol, but wait.  If we guess that it's going to be on a day that no one guesses, then do we guess the day it happens, or does that automatically eliminate all days?
