----------------------------------- Genesis Fri Oct 08, 2004 12:19 am [Help] [Basic]TI 83 Plus ----------------------------------- lol. I guess this would fall into the "Other Basics" category. Anyone have a TI 83 Plus graphing calculator? I wrote an RPG on mine today during Algebra. And I'm working on a Pong game. Until like 2 weeks ago I didn't even realize you could program in Basic on them, I thought it was all assembly. But if anyone's interested I'll write some tutorials. :P It's a great way to pass some time during class. ----------------------------------- wtd Fri Oct 08, 2004 12:23 am ----------------------------------- If the TI-83+ manual is anything like the TI-82 manual, then chapter 13 contains everything one could ever want to know about TI-BASIC. :) ----------------------------------- Tony Fri Oct 08, 2004 1:09 am ----------------------------------- heh, wtd :roll: anyways - some tutorials will be awesome. I used to write problem solvers for repetetive tasks (mostly in Math... naturally) and complete my homework with a snap. unfortunatly my teacher didn't appretiate my ability to boil a problem type down to a function :? ----------------------------------- wtd Fri Oct 08, 2004 1:11 am ----------------------------------- unfortunatly my teacher didn't appretiate my ability to boil a problem type down to a function :? Then your teacher was a moron. Breaking things down into functions is kinda what math is about. ----------------------------------- Andy Fri Oct 08, 2004 2:41 pm Re: TI 83 Plus ----------------------------------- lol.

It's tedious, but it gives you complete control over the display. ----------------------------------- Andy Fri Oct 08, 2004 2:49 pm ----------------------------------- o?? how do u program that? ----------------------------------- wtd Fri Oct 08, 2004 2:55 pm ----------------------------------- I don't remember exactly. Consult the manual. ----------------------------------- Dan Fri Oct 08, 2004 6:19 pm ----------------------------------- has any one played with the TI-89s? Thos things a cool, they can do 3d graphics and the screen rez is way beter so u can port some old game boy games over. All they need is a sound card and you whould be set ;) ----------------------------------- wtd Fri Oct 08, 2004 6:24 pm ----------------------------------- If I'm not mistaken the TI-89 marked a shift from 8-bit Z80 processors to a 32-bit Dragonball from Motorola. Such hips earned their renown as coprocessors in Apple's early Macs.
