Axiom Requests

[Fast Crash]

Hooks Axiom would be fair too
And also a better linking routine, that we could use with USB port.

[Yeong]

Axiom that lets you play stereo sound.

[Freyaday]

Axiom that supports USB sound.

[Compynerd255]

CalcNet and gCn Axioms would be super-fantastic.

And they aren't very hard, either. It's just a few subroutines and a few memory addresses. I could probably write one in my spare time. And gCn uses the same commands as CALCnet.

Axiom that supports USB sound.

Or USB input (like a mouse or flash drive).

[Ashbad]

an axiom for drawing triangles and quadrilaterals would be nice.  I already tried, but I failed miserably.

EDIT: one triangle was drawn every .4 seconds... fail.

[DJ Omnimaga]

a gCn Axiom will definitively be really great.

[ZippyDee]

How about some more advanced string operations?

[Munchor]

How about some more advanced string operations?

There are a few Axe-made subroutines good enough for the job.

I guess... Why use ASM, which is harder to deal with strings than Axe to help Axe dealing with strings?

Inverse trig operators.

And accurate trig routines that behave like decimals. ie; the axiom would take both a multiplier as well as an angle as input and output the correct fraction of the first argument: sin(2000,45) would return 1414 for example.

And 32 or 24 bit math operators that return values in 16 bit formats. (So you can calculate sqrt of 340^2+24^2 for example without running into overflow corruption)

[Runer112]

For accurate trig functions you'll pretty much have to turn to a LUT. The only reason sine and cosine routines exist is because they have a limited range and can be somewhat accurately approximated by a quadratic function. And by somewhat accurate, I mean errors reaching 10%. Trying to model just about any other trigonometric function with a simple model would probably result in wild amounts of error, and trying to model them with a more complex model would probably end up being larger than a LUT-based solution anyway. Unless you need a variable argument for your scale factor, it's best to just use a custom pre-computed LUT.

[Freyaday]

LUT? What's that?
An Axiom for custom size sprites would be awesome.

[ZippyDee]

LUT = Look-Up Table. In this case a bunch of precalculated values for the trig functions to save on calculation speed and size.

[Freyaday]

Isn't that just a regular table, though? Also, how exactly does the calc display tokens? Am I right in thinking that it's a big table of strings somewhere?
Oh, and a quaternion math Axiom would enable 3D rotation without gimbal lock.

[Happybobjr]

Mouse and keyboard support.

[Compynerd255]

Mouse and keyboard support.

You mean through USB? Now that would be cool.

Quigibo, would you please modify the first post to have a list of requested Axioms? That way everyone could see them, and they'd all be in one place.
