Nothing is working
« on: October 21, 2011, 08:43:27 pm »
I've started Axe today and started reading the User's Guide.

I have experience in ti-basic and have enough knowledge to make simple games on it.

Well, I made a basic program and it didn't work. Is there something wrong?

:.PROGRAM
:1->S
:Disp S>Dec

I went to compile and selected no shell and ran the program. All I get is a syntax error.

if you are compiling it for no shell, did you do this:?
asm(prgmPROGRAM

what exactly was the code for the "hello world" program?

I compiled it from the axe application.

I read the users guide wrong, actually. The hello world thing makes sense now.

It may or may not be relevant but compiling for Ion might fix...?  Also it would work in shells.
Which program are you running, the source or the compiled?  How are you running it?

Also, you might want to put in a Pause 1900 after the Disp line, chances are it would quit before you could tell it put something on the screen.

yeah you probably just need a:
Code: [Select]
:Repeat getKey
:End
at the end of the program

But if he's getting a syntax error there's something else going on. ;)
Say the source name (the program you select in Axe) is TESTSRC and the compiled program is PROGRAM.  Which one are you running?
Running TESTSRC would understandably throw a syntax error but PROGRAM is the one that actually does the stuff.

I understand the string thing now; I figured it out.

I ran the compiled code.

Im not really sure what a shell is or ion.

shells are things like MirageOS and DCS, I think.

The code should be valid, unless you messed up with the -> (STO) or >DEC.

Ok. Attached the exact screenshot of the code. Then I went to Axe, to compile with no shell selected, then pushed enter, then, opened prgmPROGRAM.
