Hmm my menu seems to have different options.
[LY755A MAIN] 111 1.PATTERN 4.VERSION 2.FUNC 5.SERICE 3.TEST 0.RESET
QUIT : [EXIT] unless of course this is what you see. The items though provide access to a big list of tests to run on the calc. One is this strange color test that draws all the standard colors onto the screen.

Other than being easier to asm hack, the nspire CX has the upper hand on the Prizm. Not just in audience, but also in hardware. To compete Casio would have to increase ram, increase rom, add SD card slot, and upgrade to a faster SH proc. I'm still waiting for the SH-X to come out.

It seems like there are a lot of schools now switching to the nspire. I don't know how much longer my school will still use the 84+, but it would be cool if I could have them endorse the Prizm by next year.

So how this works is if I try to open a .txt file, the kernel will then check the registry to see which program is registered to open .txt files. And if there is no program available will it give me options to open it?

You think that is bad, try this. I lost all sanity after 20 seconds.

If I right a book or build an awesome robot for google science fair will I get in?
Actually a book on TI calc game programming would be pretty cool. There would be sections on BASIC, asm, nspire C, and axe. There would also be parts that taught you how to use all those BASIC libraries like Batlib and Correlation. We have enough knowledge to write a book, but I'm not to sure of how well it would sell.

Even though you can only afford one robot you could still make it compatible with others. Also for communication there are several possibilities. You could use blips of sound, but that can be droned out and has a short range. The other which I know the military uses, has lasers to send data directly to another robot. The issue with this though is that it requires a direct line of sight. Being on a budget you could have your trusty 83/84 + work with the data and computations then have the arduino as a bridge between the motors and sensors.

Right now I'm the only one in my school with a Prizm. And there is only one person with an nspire. (not a programmer ) Next year I will still probably be the only one with a Prizm. I'm also the only person who carries two graphing calculators

Actually I believe dial-up is now canceled in many areas. My grandparents used to use dial-up until their ISP canceled the service. So they then had to upgrade to broadband. Also why don't you want to give out your info.

So are you thinking of using an arduino to control the robot. A possible idea is a method for multiple robots to connect wirelessly to speed up the mapping process. Also I don't see much of a problem with moving items as long as they are remapped. An application for the robots could be to search and destroy IED's or to preform search and rescue.

Sometimes you can sneak away with a neighbor's wifi. You'd be amazed at how many people don't place keys.

I would personally like to apologize to Lionel Debroux for some misunderstanding between posts. I understand that you were frustrated that people were not noticing the earlier work developed by you and Tribal. Unfortunately what I have noticed before that online, the intentions of others can be hard to interpret. I fully agree with you that a C/asm version is required, but I only wanted to defend the work of other members. I apologize that some of my posts were rude, but now I hope that we can continue to work together on this project.

@Lionel Debroux you are trying to start a language war. by pointing the well-known, common sense fact that C#, and other languages If you see here by calling this a common sense fact you are being offensive to people who code in C# and are involved in this project. You are not providing any reasons and are just discouraging people from taking part in this project. You also blame others for not reading your post fully when it seems that you did not fully read the topic. If you had you would see that the C# program is only temporary until Calcdude84SE codes the optimized asm version. C# was chosen as that is the language Sir best programs in. Brooom is also in the process of creating a server to streamline the factoring process. So far all you have contributed is a negative atomsphere and this will not be tolerated any longer.

Update: Well the pre-alpha of the Prizm emu is finished. The only problem is that I have a pretty bad history with compilers and keep on getting errors that should not occur. Basically the main problem is that my complier, digital mars, does not recognize global variables properly. If someone else wants to help me compile this please PM me.
