Hello everyone. I have created a program for an Introductory to Physics class. You input in five values, "Initial Velocity", "Velocity", "Acceleration", "Time", and "Distance". Then you are taken to a menu and you select what you are solving for. It has worked fairly well except....When I have inputed Initial Velocity, Time, and Acceleration, and then when I go to the menu and select Distance, it gives me three values. Does anyone know why? If you need more information, I can give it to you.

The reason why it gives you three values is because velocity = acceleration times time and distance = 0.5 times acceleration times time squared.

If someone could make a Mass and Energy Balance program for Chemical Engineering that would be great.

So, I guess I'm the first...
I too would much prefer to talk about games than science...
however, I am in Honors high-school chem, and neaig that fine line between C and D..
So, wouldanybody get around to making a REAL periodic table, as an app or asm program? With atomic masses, valence numbers, things like that? I'd make it myself but all I know is BASIC...
However, I'm working on a prog to deal with gas-law problems

There are some quite good periodic tables to TI-86.

Just grab one of them, port it, and there you are!

If you don't know anthing about programming assembly, then ask someone to port it instead. Of course you have to ask the author before porting, but most people are just happy to see that people are intereseted in their programs.

And then you could also wait some months or so. I'm programming a new periodic table, with all the data in modules. I don't know when it's complete, but I will try to get it ported to the other TI-calcs too...

If you noticed on his profile it said he had a TI-83 Plus. And yes, I know you said he or someone else could port one. But (According to my knowledge) there are two foreseeable problems. The first is; isn't the 86 a 68k calc, and the 83+ is a .z80. I didn't think you could port to and from different... oh well. Also, Ahmed what's his name made a pretty good periodic table for the 83+, it has the atomic wieght, number, name, and something else... I forget. Oh well, look in the maybe Misc. programs and you should find one.

P.S. Sorry if I was confusing!

Nope, TI-86 is also a z80 calc.

Porting between TI-83(+) and TI-86 is a piece of cake if you know both calcs fairly well.

But if there's already a good pericodic table out there there's no need to port one!

I once made a very good periodic table for my TI82 (in basic). It runs very fast and takes up a minimum of space (6-7000 bytes). The program should work on a TI82 as well as TI83. It is written in Norwegian, however it is translatable, let me know if anyone is interested.

There's a good periodic table application by Michael Vincent. It probably has more info than you'd need. The link above goes to its page on the site.

There are many periodic tables floating around at my school. They are apps for the TI-83 Plus and I could E-Mail you one of them if you want to.

(validation might be a problem)

If you are working with a TI-89 there are a couple of good ones,
Basic:
Universal Periodic Table, is ok... but it's kind of slow.
Periodic Table, is a probubly the one that I use the most... it's fast, and works well.

ASM:
Period98 is well written, fast, and contains piles of information.

I knew someone that bought a TI83+ silver with about 5 different apps already programed in and one of them had a very sweet periodic table in it. It was obviously made by the programers at texas instruments and his calc is pretty new so try someone with that.

I have an awesome app for the periodic table.. has everything and you can rearrange it by letters or atomic weight .. etc. it came preloaded on my ti 84 silver plus

Or just use a paper table with the same or more data on it and not waste any calc space.

ASM in BASIC format
shkaboinka  Account Info
(Web Page)

This is the BEST idea; anybody can do this (it is MUCH easier than it sounds in many aspects, and there are SO MANY WAYS you can do this, and SO MANY THINGS you can add)

THE POINT:
The idea is to make a PROGRAM that will read "BASIC" from a source file and convert into Assembly commands in a .z80 file (Tasm can compile it into a .8xp or something). The cool thing is that, since it's your program (or "our's", if anybody thinks we should get a bunch of people to help with how it will work), the code does not have to be in the EXACT format as on the calc; it can be however you want.

You could Also add extra features/commands that coudn't be done in z80 BASIC, but that could be done in ASM. However it's done (however simple), it can be in any format. It could be like a new programming languege or something that is nearly the same as (or better than) BASIC

It could start with the easy stuff like Disp, ClrHome, Input for Vars, Rom Calls, etc... and could have more complicated stuff added later. If anyone wants to take the idae far enough, then maybe I could see an actual Compiler thingy.

Exponding on this idea, a ASM Guru (not me, I just learned how to declare variables...) could create an application or asmprog that would create TI-8_ programs from ***C++*** or Java, i guess...

After all, don't most people who program calc's know C++? They did create high-level languages for a reason after all...

It is possible for simple commands like ClrHome and such, but you will need the parser to interpret more advanced commands, so that the speed won't increase much. This program won't have much use then

TI-83+ (z80) Basic Programmers
shkaboinka  Account Info
(Web Page)

Since it bothers me that people can just not know
stuff that I know, because I have nothing better to
do, and because I like to teach people stuff...

ALL YOU BASIC PROGRAMMERS SUCK! no offense, I am also
a basic programmer...but I see so many programs that
could be done MUCH better (haven't seen ONE that I
couldn't improve)

So, if you want I can teach you basic programmers how
to program WELL and/or VERY Efficiently! I know some
of you think you know all the "tricks" and stuff...
but even people who think they can do all this stuff
well enough can learn plenty from me as far as Basic
programming; I can do things that shouldn't be done
in Basic

Hello? Pay attention to me! I'm so Bored!!!

Hey shkaboinka,
I'll take you up on that offer. I know that i am a basic programmer but i make my programs simple for a reason. It is so any idiot can learn the basics just by studying how i did it. I am improving my programs all of the time. Just like people do with every piece of technology

Learn ASM, it is so much better than basic, and has many more options. besides if you are bored learning ASM is pretty fun to learn. at least in my opinion it was
