Re: Do you use your TI Graphing Calculator during the summer?
kaizer_911  Account Info

I use mine more than I should but I am not a nerd. I just got into TI-89 ASM programming since I found out about TIGCC which is just great since I am a C++ programmer before I even touched the TI calcs so that is just great for me!! And I still am filling "orders" for TI-83+, 85,86, & 89 programs. So I am busy with VTI and programming. But I would never put my calc down not with all the great 86 and 89 games coming out, and all the cool things out there for the TI calc series.

More to program,

... = 5^2! And I was nerd #49 = 7^2! Two consecutive prime numbers, to be even more specific, the first two twin primes of the form 6n + or - 1! And 6, the only number between them, as well as their arithmetic mean and median is the first perfect number!

I am not a nerd, but I can't say much for you. There is money in the programming buisness. I make money off writing programs cause no one is smart enough to try and write their own, but i guess I am somewhat of a nerd since you have to be one to program for the calcs but I knew C++ first and that is not so nerdy, but knock someting till you know the facts and trust me their is money in TI-Services.

A programmer,

why the heck would you play games on a calculator over the summer? Either play on your computer, or lakcing that go get a palmpilot or handspring visor deluxe, those are a whole heck of a lot better

How about this: When they come out they will cost about as much as a DVD player and will have the ability to play DVD discs. Basically you buy a DVD player that you can play games. (As for your site, I'm hesitant to take any "news" items about the problems with the PS2 from a site dedicatated to Nintendo.)

I totally agree with you on the computer part, but not the palmpilot. Maybe I just don't know enough about palmpilots, but it's seems like calculator games (at least on the 89 and 92+) would be much better. The graphics are great and a lot of time is spent on them. Calcs have superior arrow keypads (and more keys for SF2 :) Besides, the enthusiasm and pace of developement at ticalc.org is unbeatable. But if you just want good handheld games, use a Gameboy. And btw, calcs aren't just about games.

So that I can find interesting programs that will keep me occupied during math, and S.S. But just because people use the calculator for gaming in school, where laptops are banned, when I am bored, dosen't mean that they have to be "nerds." Besides, there is more to life than a calculator. I used to be a nerd, until I sat down and thought about it. "It is a damn calculator!" I said to myself, and realized that it can do addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. And these are special, because they can make funny little lines that T.I. inc. calls "graphing." I don't think that they meant for Some person to go and "hack" the calculator for assembly, (not saying I am not glad that person did it), and they origionally made tibasic for creating helpful math programs, not games. Reinforcing what was said earlier, if you are in summer, and have a computer available, why don't you use that, it is much better for gaming. Just my 2 cents.

I like the TI-89 version: Life is life!

BTW: Now we know it: Calculators don't have a life. We're playing with something dead! AAAAHH!!!!

Joking, of course. If I were serious, half the people on this site would be 'dead'.

you live the life you want to live~! maybe the nerds like it, ok? i am probably an "in-between nerd" and i happen to like my life... btw, just because we are nerds and play calculator games, doesn't mean that we don't do "normal" things. i mean, i play baseball and street hockey, and hangout with friends(mostly non-nerds)... where do you get off saying that we have no life, maybe we think you have no life.. fine call me a nerd, i don't care because i know our parents accept us, our friends accept us, why can't you?
