CAS OS on Standard TI-nspire [development idea]

[bwang]

The only reason I can think of is that we're missing most of the standard library right now, and the OS might not have the entry points for the C++ functions.

Is there enough of a difference to bother with it? We could just write the extra commands into a header or library so it feels like you're using C++ when you're using C. What commands are different, anyways? I've used C a little, but I've never actually tried C++

C++ is an object-oriented language.

What exactly comprises the "object" part of that though? Is it variables, functions, commands? i never really understood that quote.

Classes. Essentially, a data-type sort of thing with its own data and methods.
