Are we currently able to use this or will it require a software hack?
I've just newsed about the new Nspire "secret" programming language included in OS 3.0! (according to our first investigations some kind of an object oriented script, very similar to Lua)

If said OS bugs were not part of the math functionality, they'd have less incentive to fix them. I'm sure they'll fix fundamental glitches in the math functions (and didn't someone in that google groups topic say something about a reply from TI that they planned to fix the bug?)

For information, I've reported a math bug giving a bad result with complex numbers on all TI-83/83+/84+ OSes.
2 years ago...
They replied with a "thank you", and "we're forwarding to the development team".
They never fixed anything... The bug is still there in the 84+ 2.56MP OS.
angle(N) with N being a negative real number returns Pi in both radian and degree angular modes.
In degree mode, it should return 180.
Of course, a human will automatically replace Pi by 180.
But a program will just continue to perform its operations using the wrong value, if its developer wasn't aware of the bug.

Well yes, I realize that they don't care about TI-84+ bugs anymore. But for their shiny TI-Nspire line, they actually care about that stuff it seems.

Use what, the periodic table? If it's a page that can be added to documents, or a program like the scratchpad, I doubt we can use it on the non-CX nspires. If it's a tns, it should work on any OS3 nspire.

I hope they care about TI-Nspire bugs. Theyt already have a bad enough rep on stuff like that(mainly from us). If they keep it up they will probably start losing lots of customers

I was talking about the scripting language that makes it work
By the way I downloaded this app and have not seen any real special functionality what is it supposed to be able to do on nonCAS Nspire?
I don't think any of what I'm seeing would require a scripting language I have a version much like this on my calc already that is community made
