Title: I guess this is me?
Post by: MrFinn on May 03, 2012, 05:14:08 pm
i have been making basic programs for years that get as large as 7000 ram. i would like to learn asm so that stuff runs faster. thats about it :)

Axe Parser is a good choice too. Much faster than BASIC, and it's far easier to program with on your calculator. (Most Asm programmers use a PC because the tools are better) It's also easier to learn.

Grammer is to be considered too ;)

Anyway, welcome here :)

i guess it is!
and axe and grammer are both very useful, but if you feel like learning asm, go ahead and try it! we wouldn't have other tools unless people did =)
oh, and moar peanuts!

Hmm, maybe Graxembly... Though I am partial to Grammer, personally >.>/me runs
But in all seriousness, if you want to learn assembly, go for it :D If you want to take an intermediate step, though, I think Grammer or Axe will be a really good choice. They do give you a good introduction to some key concepts in assembly :) I won't be around after tomorrow morning for a while (no internet), but there are some pretty knowledgeable Grammer coders around and tons of Axe and Assembly coders :)

I would probably not recommend making a program using both Grammer and Axe at once, though, because if both apps are 2 pages huge, that doesn't leave a lot of free space to program large games. X.x

Or worse: Grammer, TI-BASIC with xLIB/DCS and Axe at once O.O

But yeah if you have any questions, feel free to use the help section on the forums and people will be happy to answer if they can help. :)

Hehe, I think in a few hours I will release another version of Grammer. I will include a program that will let you call the Grammer interpreter in a BASIC program and execute Grammer code+BASIC in one program >.>
That means you could make a single program using xLIB/CelticIII/DCS+BASIC+Grammer :D

If you do that, I'm betting someone will troll and release a guessing game that is 200 bytes large but takes the entire calc archive due to all the dependencies <_<

add the Asm programs on that one as well. :P
