1988, yep. i'm 14. Good survey idea btw, except that there won't be a whole lot of discussion about it before it gets really off-topic.

Yay! Javascript! It was my first language too, only I learned it in 6th or 7th grade (can't remember which). The thing I like about it so much is... it's free... you can do anything... the syntax isn't strict... but the problem is... error checking really stinks on it.

Dude, same year, but not quite 16 yet.

I feel like a baby on here. I started programming for the 89 6 months ago. I anyone has any advice, or even a place for me to go to learn 68k asm, I would be greatful. It is not as if I know, I've had to resort to C, wich is all fine and good, but I feel like I'm missing out.

technoplaza.net -- the best for both C and A68k.

If you have any questions, just ask them, and hopefully somebody will know :) I'm pretty good with everything but file i/o. I'm still a little rusty in that area, though I used it in KBL.

Also, when you have NOTHING better to do, read through the C libraries... you can learn a lot by doing that.

That sounds EXACTLY like me:

No... anything calculator-specific would be different... pixel plotting, certain memory areas, integrating the OS into it, but the ASM syntax would be the same. (I'm pretty sure, at least)

All of the 68k TI calcs have the same size and location of LCD memory. The TI-89 just shows less of it than the TI-92(+)/V200. But you are correct that anything calculator-specific would be different. That is a matter of the specific platform (calculator) and not of the underlying language (68k assembly), which is the same regardless of the platform (besides the different flavors of 68k, like 68020, 68060, or 68080).

Organinzed programmers usually put platform-dependant code inside individual routines/functions (such as functions for getting keypresses) so that the rest of the code is portable.

BTW, 1983 baby!

I was referring to the actual assembly language, not the implementation of it. The commands would be identical, although some values would change (i.e. memory locations, graphics mapping stuff, etc.).

That was before I know of computer links, ASM, ticalc, or other types of calculators ;-) It was me and my TI-82. (Sounds like a song name) Anyway, I made so many "games" (they're so stupid, but they're memories *aaawwww*) that I filled up the whole RAM. That's a LOT of cr4ppy basic programs :)

I'm not... I guessed most people here would be around their sophomore year, and it seems I was right (or pretty darn close). I guess people are learning to program at younger and younger ages.

Quick OT story... I was looking back at my old ASM programs that wouldn't run for some inexplicable reason (made most when I was 12)... and I did some of the dumbest things. I never realized that CP used subtraction for its equality tester, I never knew that 8-bit and 16-bit registers weren't compatible (Well, I did, but I didn't seem to show it), I didn't realize that CALL GET_KEY used the A register, I couldn't correctly use PUSH and POP, and hopefully, as time goes on... I'll find the errors to my current program (flying ship game... very simplistic) as easily as I found the errors to my dumb programs. :) Then, I could make more advanced programs.

Heh, heh! This reminds me of, well... me! I started learning Z80 ASM late in life at age 15 (I think) and I thought I had mastered it by then (don't we all think that? :).

I wrote over 600 lines of code for a game, and, believe it or not, it didn't work! Fortunately, it didn't crash; it exited when I pressed EXIT (as I wrote it to do).

I couldn't even remember at the time the differences between the different rotate instructions (RR, RRC, etc.), so I had to "draw" little diagrams in the ASM comments next to those instructions.

I don't think I was bad as you were when I was starting (nah nah), but I was also older and had a book that describes each instruction in detail.

BTW, are you interested in things like multithreading with ASM? I've written routines to multithread on a calc, and I MIGHT be able to teach you about those things if you'd like.

Oohh... multithread? Wuz that? (Now I feel like a n00b... I hate that feeling) I use the 82 (primitive, lol) for ASM and I always make the stupidest mistakes. :) I wonder if I'd be able to understand it (lol)
The one thing I never did get was interrupt routines... I was absolutely clueless, though I know there's an I register.

Ironic, isn't it, that the previous survey (with only 1 option) is followed by this one (with 21 options). In fact, I think that this survey has the most options ever on a ticalc.org poll.

Really? Well, you may be right... they usually contain four or five, right?

You should know. You seem to have voted in most of the polls.

Yeah, but you're more "senior" (I can use that word now, lol) than me by about 3000-4000 ID counts (You had a 17000 account, didn't you?). But yeah, I do go here quite frequently :)

This is really random, but did anybody see the AMCE tests? GEEZ! If I would have taken them I would have gotten AT MOST a 1/15 (but most likely a 0/15). Those are pretty darn hard. Has anybody gotten all 15 correct? (genius people)

Last year was the first time I took one of them. On one question I knew how to calculate it manually but that would have taken to long so I wrote a simple BASIC prog on my 89 in acouple of minutes and I later found out I did it right. I was only off a couple of points from going to the next level.

LOL, same thing here... with both stories :) I made BASIC proggies to solve stuff for me, and I was also extremely close to making it to the AMCE (or whatever it's called).
