nDeriv(.1x^3,x,x
...but what if I just change it to .3x^2? :P

It actually is considerably faster:

Yeah, that's a trick we use a lot in calculus. It really comes in handy when you are graphing 2nd derivatives. I didn't have you do that, but that's the only time I usually change Xres to 2. The only downside is that it doesn't check for discontinuity.

Also, if you have skills, you can change Xres to > 8 with calcsys. Setting it to 31 is entertaining for instance.

You can build a statue out of either 1'x1' blocks or 12'x12' blocks. The 1'x1' blocks will take a lot longer, but the final product is worth it.

Done ;D
It was compiled for Ion (in case you want to run it with MirageOS, for some reasons)

Tell me if there are problems with it (like wrong hook).

When I use the on+num shortcut to compile with axe, it seems to randomly zoom (fast compile, less optimizations) or compile normally.
It is bad luck to be superstitious.

If this is under the newest version of Axe, this makes perfect sense.  Basically you just need to wait for thepenguin to update zStart - it's a bug caused by the incompatibility of an Axe improvement.

Edit:  Feature Request:
Can you add a screen somewhere that says what is in all of the On + number hooks?  I sometimes am hesitant to use them because I don't want to accidentally think that I'm pushing the wrong thing.  If zStart's out of space you could even make it a standalone program; I'd just find it quite useful.  Thanks!

I saw that in the new features. I wonder why it randomly chooses between the two though.

Is it possible to make a shortcut to zoom or compile normally?

After an IRC discussion with thepenguin today, it should always compile normally.  Are you using both the most recent version of Axe and of zStart?  (I know the previous version of Axe had problems with Zoom vs. regular when zStart was using it).

That happens to me with 1.0.5, with the ON+# compiling shortcut randomly.

Out of space? zStart is now so big that there's a negative amount of free space remaining---we've resorted to hacking data into places in the header that aren't supposed to hold application data. (Not that I think you have a bad idea; I'm just saying.)

No way.  That's about the most epic thing I've ever heard of doing.  Wow.

Oh, thepenguin, earlier today I had a random-ish RAM Clear when trying to edit a program in archive after triggering a regular RAM Clear and then trying to edit an archived program (by pressing a number, if that matters).  I ran zStart after the second RAM clear, toggled zStart Off, then On again, and then tried editing the same program.  That worked just fine.
Not to burst your bubble (bug-ble?) or anything...
