Interesting  Maybe the TI Nspire navigator is also a Nspire calculator. I know that the TI Navigator (non nspire) runs Linux, so maybe there is a little change that its an nspire platform (hardware), but the software is Linux. That is at least what I'm wishing :p

Two days is really short I think and a normal person will make it in 5-6 days. Give an example of what you think to be a "simple" program/game. Yes, we all know you are not normal :p Personally I didn't think it was hard, but if its the first time you program, it can be a bit hard.

Indeed, very good job And, this idea will be useful for many other programs

Very nice But I had fun soldering directly to the dock port :p

I like this rule because many times people have a good reason behind things they do, while other people might not understand why. For example, I do stuff different than other people, simply because my computer isn't the most powerful one. It makes my life more easy doing it my way, rather than the other way

Looks very interesting Sadly enough I'm not in the Ndless camp, but in the Lua one, so I can't test it. I wish you good luck with it, and most of all, have fun

@z80man, the nspire has a serial port, in the dock connector  And the emulator itself sounds great

I would suggest to use math.eval and call basic function to do the calculation. But sadly enough getNum and getDenom don't work good through math.eval.
But ... gcd() (greatest common divisor) does, so I made my own function:
function exact(n)
local n_int, n_float = math.modf(n)
local n_size = math.pow(10, #tostring(n_float)-2)
local num = n_float * n_size
local denom = n_size
local gcd = math.eval("gcd(" .. num .. "," .. denom .. ")")
num = num/gcd
denom = denom/gcd
return n_int, num, denom
end
It works like this:
big, num, denom = exact(13.125)big will be 13
num will be 1
denom will be 8
So, 13 1/8 .
It doesn't do any error checking though, thats your task :p

Very nice

Yes, I know, but I'm not going to open my calc to find out Unless you send me some to test :p

Maybe, I don't know. As far as I can see it doesn't print to any other port on the dock.

You can run the mac version from the terminal, but I don't know right away how to do that. Lemme poke someone who knows it

Try running the software from cmd, and look at the output when running a lua script with print(). You should see it in the console And yes, I could put the print functions we created on inspired-lua

Well, it ins't actually removed (I tested it today), it just doesn't print to the console/serial port anymore (which renders it useless).
