Other Calculators / What's your favorite Programming Method?
« on: April 12, 2010, 11:42:24 pm »
I was just wondering what everyone likes using. For those who don't know what it is, BBC Basic is a Real BASIC implementation on-calc. You can find it at http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/416/41608.html on ticalc.org. It really works rather well, but you should be familiar with BASIC (not TI-BASIC) before you jump in, as it is quite different.

Yes, I know that some are just the same idea for different calcs. That's why I gave multiple Votes!

Introduce Yourself! / Helloooo out there!

Hi, my name is will and I feel like programming something on the nspire. I might as well since i'm getting one in a few days. You can spot me if you find ridiculous ideas all over the place that may or may not be possible. I'm still not too familiar with any calculator stuff except BASIC, so I'll probably say a lot of uninformed stuff.

Does this forum email responses? I would prefer it if it's available.

Other Calculators / Is this a correct comparison?
« on: April 10, 2010, 09:34:54 pm »
I was speculating about the Nspire, having found out that it uses an ARM chip. Since that is the case, comparison to other ARM devices should be fairly close, correct?

The point is, if they are truly in perspective to each other, the DS is significantly less powerful than the nspire. For instance:

Nspire has 150 MHz processor (according to ticalc.org) DS has two: 66Mhz and 33Mhz.
Nspire has 16MB of ram (not flash), DS has 4MB.

This means that almost anything that can run on DS (not touchscreen dependent) could run on the Nspire! For example: SnemulDS (SNES), A billion different NES emulators, and various other homebrew.

Also, since they are both ARM, could a call style setup like the one in TI-Boy for the 84 be used for GBA? I feel much more uncertain about this one, but it may be a possibility so I'll throw it out there.

Thanks in advance!
