Ti Basic on Computer
« on: October 04, 2008, 05:44:24 pm »
I am really tired of typing stuff onto my calculator. I have already used most of the tibasic on computer programs on ticalc, except that none of them are really good (in that i can actually program faster on the calculator...). Some of them i couldn't get to work, while some of them had this weird caps lock and non caps thingy. For example, to use the "output" argument, you would have to type in OUTPUT(1,1,"whatever"). If you wanted to display something you would have to use disp "whatever" If you wanted to text something it was Text(1,1,"387529). As you can see some of them are all lowercase, some of them are all uppercase while others are some upper and some lower case. I can't remember them all. If you use the wrong upper or lower case, it won't work on the calculator. I have tried. So yea, this is the end to my rambing. Oh and one of the purpose to this topic is so someone can direct me to a decent tibasic on computer program

you'll also need the ti-program editor font if you want the program to work correctly.
You can find the font here: http://www.unitedti.org/index.php?showtopic=4722&st=0&p=73879&#entry73879

That zip should have everything in it you need, as I have been using it continuously. I have found a few of my programs that it did not like, and I have not yet figured out why...

There is also the good old TI-Graph Link, but it doesn't support illegal characters if I remember and it can crash in anything made above Windows 98

Yup, graphlink is a good resource and can be found on Texas Instrument's website on the same page as the ti connect software. I think there is a program called source coder on Kerm martin's website (cemetech) on which you can edit BASIC programs as well, although I have never tried it. Personally I prefer to code on calc in BASIC and most people that code BASIC do. I have gotten to where i can code and type on my calc (as have many others) nearly as fast as I can on computer. :)

lol I used to type faster on calc than computer
In 2001 I think I typed at about 10-15 wpm on the comp and 35-40 on the calc, then when I got my first computer ever in 2004 20-25 wpm on the comp and eventually slowed down on calc due to less coding being done so I would say I now type faster on the PC, altough still rahter slow (about 30-35 wpm maybe, sometimes slower)
