Programming Tutorials, Help, Etc.
« on: April 05, 2010, 08:22:27 pm »
The point of this thread is to be a collaboration of tutorials, guides, and all other like things, from around the web, to help prevent the hassle of going through webpage after webpage looking for quality references, or in Omnimaga’s case, a lot of different threads, sub-forums, and posts.

This is where you guys come into play. I want you guys to provide links to websites that you know are good sites, have good reference material, have good tutorials, and basically just anything that is helpful to people. The range of topics is not limited in the least. If you find something you think we would all find beneficial then post it.

Well, I don't know much about asm, but if you want to learn fast, you could just read through the xLIB-Readme - that's how I learned most of the commands :)

P.S.
I just found this on google  ;D

I would say http://www.newbiesparadise.com/ but I just discovered that it closed... If you know French, this website is very good.

I think he meant for stuff other than calculators. Unfortunately I am not too familiar with that, though, so I cannot really help much x.x
* DJ Omnimaga hopes Meishe91 isn't quitting calcs :O

No, no, I'm not quitting calc stuff. I've just always been interested programming in other things too. So I figured I'd ask since I have seen there are some talented guys out here :)

This is also for any type of programming really, calc or non-calc related. Preferably though if it is calc related though it would be better if it was a not so well known things or something like that.

ah ok phew I was worried x.x (in the past I often saw calc programmers venture into PC programming then vanish from the TI community a month later)

Builderboy and a few others know Java and some knows C so they might be able to help too.

XNA being the language that lets you port your games to Xbox 360, right? (altough for 360  I think this is not free)

Ya, this is just meant to be like a good source for those who might wanna venture into other languages to improve our skills and thinking. Could give us new ideas too.

XNA can be used to make windows mobile, xbox, and windows.  It also serves as an outline (I think, you might want to ask Sir)

It would be nice to know what languages you're looking for, or at least what type of languages... such was web, object-oriented, so on.
Regardless, I can gather a list of site I've used in the past for various languages. Gimme a bit. I haven't slept much. ^^;

Take as much time as you want. And it quite literally is any language anybody has experience in and such haha. Whether it be for web design, game development, etc. I plan to list them under different categories when I start organizing the first post.
