I didn't know that many people will download my matrix multiplication program.

The calculators already multiply matrices. :-D

And there are a whole lot of programs that replicate many functions. If the stuff wasn't in basic, then I might check them out for speed increases, but other than that, whats the point?

Yeah, I HATE seeing stupid BASIC programs that take up too much memory, run too slowly, and do something that the calc already does.

but sometimes it can just be a heck of a lot easier with a program. Take making box-and-whisker plots for example. The calc already does it, but you have to mess with lists and stat plot settings, ending up with very little info other than the pic at the end. but my box and whisker maker (see my profile) only requires {number,number,number...} and gives you all the info, plus a pic that (i think) looks much better than the built-in generator.
And also, I think that BASIC math progams (im mainly talking about the "enter-a-number so-the-program can-put-it-into-a-fourmula and-spit-out-the-answer" programs) are not necessarily worthless. The calc does not have built-in MODE support, and neither does any BASIC math program other than my AASTAT. Yet AASTAT also combines mean and median (and soon-to-be range), which are all very easily accessed through the TI-OS, into one program that's really fast to use.
Basically, what i'm saying is that BASIC math can be useful if it saves you time (combines multiple tasks), but otherwise is generally useless.

Interesting. Well personally I can't get any decent speed from the BASIC language, and I've been messing with ASM but I can't get any help from people because theres no one to contact.. not that I've found so far. They supply emails, but the email addresses don't exist. Bleh.

If you don't see any potential for speed in BASIC, check out SiCoDe. Wow.

Yeah, I agree to an extent.

The thing is, basic is really easy enough that you can create your own formula program without much experience or time, it seems.

I didn't say that there was anything wrong with BASIC-I just said that I hated the BASIC programs that did something the calc already did BUT WORSE.

In case you didn't notice... yes, I am too lazy to click your profile, then author profile, then gold phoenix. :)

Or, click the pretty picture of the 89 at the top of the screen, wait for the main page to load, and scroll to the bottom of the screen where it says they welcome contributions. Click on that, let it load, then click on "File Upload Form."

I got more than i expected! Look at my files, and I've only had these files submitted for about a month (see especially the arcade game i made).

Out of interest, as I have gone over 500 downloads with the game countdown (Yippee!!) Does anyone here actually play it?

It's for the 82 basic but apparantly it can be easily ported to 83 - anyone willing to check if it works so I can shove it there as well?

I think I misunderstood the question...I thought it was supposed to be "are the number of downloads lower or higher than you expected?". Always, always, too low...

Usually, I'd say too low, but since TankWars has more weekly downloads than NerdWars, I think it's just right. ^_^
