Personally I know nothing about vectors but would TI 83 BASIC be fast enough to do simple vector addition because if so then you could make some pretty neat racing games using vectors to handle different aspects of cars *cough* gran turismo 83+  *cough*

Ok well here is a basic screenshot of how it will work and obviously the acceleration is not real lol cause that would be a mad slow car anyways if anyone else knows some things that effects cars please tell me but anyways if I were to make a gran turismo game I would look up the cars real numbers so it would be "The real driving simulator" for 83+ lol.

Yea but umm Dragon_lance you know anything else that affects the car??

haha, our whole class is struggling with them, and most of them are failing. As for car factors: air resistance, aerodynamics, friction, the usual...

we had vectors in pre-calc.....they can be tedious some times, but its still easy, and we're programmers for a reason...

yea ok drangon_lance thanks and with xlib this would pwn but it would be relle hard if you think about because of how you need to handle all the sprites.

it used vectors?

Oh yeah, that'd be insane to try to create all the different views of the cars One game, Death Ralley by Cobb, handles it real nicely in ASM, you should check it out!
