TI-Nspire / [Live stream] Coding a Flappy Bird clone in TI-Nspire Lua
« on: February 13, 2014, 10:00:07 am »
Hi,

I have a little time tonight and since I decided to quickly code a n-th clone of Flappy Bird, I might as well make it in a way that benefits those who wish to see how this is to code a game in Lua for Nspire platform :)


So I'll live-stream the game being programmed today at 6 PM GMT+1 (France time) .
I do not know how long it will take : D

Once completed , I'll also upload the video on TI-Planet's YouTube channel, and the game itself.

What to expect :
- Using APIs for OS 3.1 and 3.2
- Programming with Classes
- Programming in a completely dynamic way ( no hardcoded sizes, etc. )
- Using a Screen Manager
- Misc. tips&tricks (images, animations, etc.).
- Some optimization techniques
- Music in the background, because it is obvious.

News / Some music with the Orion TI-84 Plus
« on: September 09, 2013, 08:26:46 am »
Hi everyone,

You may have read our recent news about the hand-on review of the Orion TI-84 Plus, and… maybe you thought if you're a programmer especially, about the not-so-normal possible uses of the Orion module, for example user-controlled sound output ? ;-)

Of course, for now, one can think about making it read numbers and words, which is not very difficult and it was shown in the video on the news linked above.

But .... already on the traditional TI-83+ and 84+, some programmers have released solutions from relatively simple to a bit more complex but realistic in order to get music from the calculator via the 2.5mm Jack I/O port.

Anyway, there has always been some joy for the programmers to tinker with that, maybe especially for the ones more hackers than others, for offering a new dimension to their creations, and in general for those who want to impress their friends with music coming out of their calculator ;-)


Here is a music whose name I won't probably need to state, which I was able to "compose" when thinking about the fact that the calculator has the ability to "read graphs" :


You'll have to excuse me for a few false notes, I certainly heard them too, but ... I can't actually do better, or at least with this method. Indeed, the height of the sound depends directly on the y-coordinate of the pixel, but the change is not by semitone as in our traditional tempered scales ; in fact, the increase in pitch of the sounds are done by a few commas and therefore we don't always get on a well-defined note ... I put the closest ones, which may bother some who have a good ear like me, but it won't prevent anyone from recognizing the Mario theme ;-)

For technical details on the calculator side :
- The calculator reads the current pixel with a sound corresponding to its height (y-coordinate). I had to find a way to jump from one height to another (not going through the pixels in between)
- To do that, we can draw a graph in Plot mode with a list of points :-) In Trace mode with a plot drawn, moving with the left / right arrow jumps from point to another and thus switches from a height to another directly !
- So : just define a list (here, L2) of y-coordinate representing the notes (pitch), and L1 the simple list of X values ?? (a trivial seq(A,A,1,dim(L2->L1 will suffice)

Mario's notes (y-coordinates) are, in order :
Code: [Select]
39,39,39,33,39,44,25,33,25,21,29,32,29,27,26,39,
44,47,41,44,40,34,37,32,14,44,42,41,38,40,27,29,
34,29,34,37,14,44,43,41,38,39,52,52,52,14,44,42,
41,38,40,27,29,34,29,34,37,38,37,34,34,34,34,34,
37,39,34,28,25,39,39,39,33,39,44

Some technical obstacles :
- You are limited to 95 points, so 95 notes, for each Plot. We can thus have 285 notes in total by combining 3 Plots with 3 ordered lists (to go from one to the other, use the up / down arrows)
- It is not with this method that we can have rhythm (on the video, you see that I'm doing it manually). Perhaps with the program Xeda made (IIRC), it can perform a sequence of keystrokes to automate the process ? Or maybe with another way I have not yet found via basic programs to display a point to be read ... (granted, I have not yet tried much).
- It is not like this that we get several notes at once. But hey, just buy several Orion ....  ;D



See you soon for some more … peculiar experiments ? ;)

So, I've read the chat logs earlier and Tim Wessman said some things about weird things that could happen in functions/plots :D

Quote
[08:21:15]<tw_hpcalc>i am quite excited to get more people pounding on it with the user programs, but also nervous
[08:21:24]<tw_hpcalc>   as user programs are one of the hardest things to allow
[08:21:34]<tw_hpcalc>   so many ways people can do things you never anticipated
[08:23:25]<tw_hpcalc>   so here's a good one for example
[08:23:35]<tw_hpcalc>   you can make a user program, and graph the thing
[08:23:58]<tw_hpcalc>   put the function call inside your equation, and have that create user dialogs....
[08:24:10]<tw_hpcalc>   what's going to happen there? :-|
[08:24:21]<tw_hpcalc>   just crazy stuff like that

So far... no luck in finding anything weird in that (well, at least on the computer software, but at this level it shouldn't matter) :P

Indeed I can call a function I defined earlier from a plot (within F1(X) for example), and as long as the program RETURNs something, it can be used.
However... that stops working as soon as there is some I/O commands in there. (Then, the graph (and table) says the values are undefined)


I have a question, though, if TW ever reads this : a function(X) returning TICKS() and then plotted will only produce one point ... Any idea why ?
And... weird behavious finally found : With a single-screen (plot) : I can't autoscale because of this ^ (it says it can't because there is one point). However, when looking at a split view, with table, it then produces more values (it's funny because when you click, or do whatever, it updates the values ;). And then, *sometimes* you can use autoscale., don't ask me why :P Looks like this :

(Also, you still can click and move around even if that popup text is displayed)



Anyway, any other cool ideas of crazy things to try ? :P


PS : What about syntax-coloring in the program editor ... ? Would be darn cool/useful.

News / HP Prime Hardware Details (of a DVT Prototype)
« on: August 09, 2013, 08:14:52 am »
Hi everyone,

Unlike the fx-CP400 which gave us a hard time (easy when you know the trick... ;) ), the HP Prime opens quite "easily" and reveals us its hardware:


We notice the references which were already at the back of our prototype: EA656MB for the motherboard and EA656KB for the keyboard and power board.

They include:
  • Touch Color Display 3.5" diagonal with a resolution of 320x240px
  • Processor (U101): Samsung S3C2416XH-40 - ARM9 clocked at 400 MHz maximum.
  • RAM Memory (U200): Hynix H5MS2562NFR - 32 MB
  • Flash Memory (U201): Samsung K9F2G08U0C-SCB0 - 256 MB
  • Battery: Li-Ion 3.7V, 1500 mAh (5.55Wh)
In short, a fairly standard and simple architecture around three main distinct chips: RAM/ROM CPU.

Let’s now look at the details ;)

Processor :
  • Architecture : ARM (ARM9 ; 32 bit)
  • Core : ARM926EJ-S
  • Manufacturer  : Samsung
  • Reference : S3C2416
  • Specs : 16KB I-cache; 16KB D-cache/MMU
  • Frequency : 2 Modes : 266 MHz and 400 MHz
  • Note : Features 2D Acceleration
  • Official "Product Brief" (PDF)
RAM Memory :
  • Type : DDR SDRAM
  • Manufacturer  : Hynix
  • Reference : H5MS2562NFR E3M
  • Capacity : 32 MB (256Mb (x16 device) = 4M x 4Bank x 16 I/O)
  • Manufacturer  Page officielle
  • Datasheet (Closest JFR model)
Flash Memory :
  • Type : Flash NAND
  • Manufacturer  : Samsung
  • Reference : K9F2G08U0C SCB0
  • Capacity : 256 MB (2 Gb)
  • Datasheet
Screen
  • Type : TFT
  • Manufacturer  : ?
  • Reference : ?
  • Dimensions : 3.5" (8,9 cm)
  • Resolution : 320×240 px
  • Pixel density : 114 ppi
  • Color : Yes , 16-bit;
  • Other : Capacitive multi-touch layer
Battery :
  • Type : Rechargeable Battery
  • Technology: Lithium-Ion
  • Manufacturer : WiseWod Tehnology Co.
  • Reference : 484461AR
  • IEC 61960 Number : 1ICP6/51/63
  • Dimensions : 4.8 * 43.8 * 61 mm
  • Nominal voltage  : 3.7 V
  • Max. capacity : 1500 mAh
  • Energy: 5.55 Wh
  • Impedance : <= 60 m?

     
    In short, only documented and standard chips instead of proprietary ones or hidden in an ASIC, which is a nice change from the TI-Nspire or even more from the fx-CP400 :)

    This calculator is positioning itself as a potential competitor to the TI-Nspire CX, as we wrote in our hands-on review (Omni topic) and the hardware confirms this idea, despite a slight weakness in the RAM amount.
    In fact, some people already think of a Prime emulator on the Nspire and a Nspire one on the Prime, given the similar architecture! (But first, the machine will have to be open to native development ;) )

    You can also compare the technical specs of the CX and the Prime with our comparator :

    See you later :)

    News / TI-Connect 4.0 and 84C OS 4.0 released !
    « on: April 10, 2013, 03:29:32 pm »
    In a previous news item, you could discover ahead of time on TI-Planet the latest beta of the new TI-Connect 4.0 linking software, adding support for the 84+ C Silver Edition calculator to the existing TI-Z80 and TI-68k support.

    More precisely, the showcased version was 4.0.0.209.

    Tonight, the final version, TI-Connect 4.0.0.218 was released. It represents the first update of the TI-Connect software for Windows since 2010!


    You can now transfer images and install OS upgrades to your 84+ C Silver Edition from Windows!
    (with the official software, that is - the third-party TILP II 1.17 software, which was recently published, already enabled doing it, provided the .8c? files were renamed to .8x?)


    One other thing :

    For a few days already, you were able to download, in exclusivity on TI-Planet, the OS v4.0 for the TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition!

    Indeed, a little tool by Critor was capable to create installable OS files from a ROM image of the calculator.

    In the previous news, TI-Connect 4.0 for Windows just came out.
    And like all the Windows versions of TI-Connect, it comes with a bundle of device-installable OS files, and here with the OS 4.0 for the brand new TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition.

    After an hexadecimal comparison of the files ignoring the headers, we can see that this OS 4.0's code is 100% identical that the one running on my sample TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition.

    Consequently, the OS bundled with TI-Connect 4.0 also suffers from all the bugs we noticed in our review some weeks ago. :(

    The same goes for the 4.0 OS file available on TI's site, which is the same as TI-Connect 4.0 's one :(


    Enjoy!

    ASM / Lowercase toggle ASM program ported to the 84C
    « on: February 21, 2013, 09:05:12 am »
    Hi,

    Looking at the famous code to toggle lowercase typing on the 83/84, I looked up the new address + offset (got lucky that it's still the same on the 84C) and successfully ported the one line program :-)
    (Old code : 21148A3E08AE77C9    New one : 214A8B3E08AE77C9  )



    ( http://i.imgur.com/x7TEDlE.png )

    So, run it once to be able to double-tap the [Alpha] key to switch to lowercase, and run it again to disable it.


    Needless to say, porting something for a device I don't even have (yet? :P) in a language I know pretty much nothing about, I feel proud (and it's my first asm prgm :P) x)

    Thanks to Brandon for WikiTI, DrDnar for the 84C include file, FloppusMaximus for the original code, Runner112 for the z80 bot, and KermM for the emu ;)

    News / TI launches the official TI-Nspire iPad application !
    « on: February 06, 2013, 06:21:16 pm »
    Hello everybody,

    Today is a great day !
    Indeed, TI is releasing, this thursday (Feb. 7th, 2013), its TI-Nspire iPad applications (both CAS and non-CAS versions, like the Nspire devices themselves).
    It is a great day, as I was saying, since, in fact, TI finally answers (and plays a role in) to the evolution in the education market towards a more digital and mobile world... on platforms getting more and more common, powerful, open to third party applications, connected ...
    TI therefore changes to be well integrated with what students and schools begin to use as  comprehensive solutions for education, like the iPad (which has on its App Store many educational applications, for example).


    We had seen already recently with Steve Arnold (in cooperation with Jim Bauwens), an Nspire-Lua layer for a Javascript Lua interpreter, which is able to run enough Nspire-Lua code in order to launch lua script originally made for the TI-Nspire, and this on any platform powerful enough and capable of running Javascript (so, tablets, for example), but here it's a full native reimplementation of the whole Nspire ecosystem (Calculator, G&G, Spreadsheets, Math Editor...) available on your tablet ! Directly transfer your .tns files up on your iPad, and you'll be able to enjoy your content on a better device with a nicer screen, for instance ;-) !

    Here are a few images:
    http://imgur.com/a/tpIj9

    Presentation video :

    Another good news ? The price for both the CAS and non-CAS version is the same : $29.99 !

    No doubt an Android version should be released at some point. Indeed, even if the iPad is still selling well, the sales of Android tablets are catching up with iPad ones, thus following the evolution that has made the iOS smartphones sales lower recently.

    Texas Instruments unveils breakthrough TI-Nspire Apps for iPad®
    TI extends its most powerful graphing technology into apps
    that will change the way students visualize, engage and interact with math

    Now available on the App Store

    DALLAS (February 20, 2013) – Texas Instruments (TI), the most trusted brand in graphing calculator technology, “took a major step forward in our mission to improve student understanding and achievement in mathematics” with the release today of two new innovative apps:  TI-Nspire™ App for iPad and TI-Nspire™ CAS App for iPad, said Melendy Lovett, president of Texas Instruments Education Technology. 
     “The apps fill a critical need for an all-in-one math teaching and learning tool designed specifically for the iPad,” said Lovett.  “TI is extending the proven benefits of TI-Nspire technology to the tablet platform.  TI’s goals are to provide educators with the most powerful math apps for the iPad and to engage students while helping them reach a deeper conceptual understanding of math. Beyond the new Apps for iPad, TI continues to support teachers by providing world-class professional development, and access to free classroom-ready activities for use with the TI-Nspire Apps for iPad; activities can be integrated seamlessly into curriculum and are available at TI’s Math Nspired website.”
    The TI-Nspire Apps for iPad were designed and refined in collaboration with researchers and classroom teachers, including Stephanie Ogden, Dean of Research and Development at L&N STEM Academy in Knoxville, TN, who also teaches Pre-Calculus, AP* Calculus, AP* Statistics and STEM.
     “The TI-Nspire Apps for iPad are truly transparent technology, allowing students to touch and interact with math with little awareness of the tool in their hands.  Students experience mathematics more directly and they are beyond engaged—they are excited about learning,” Ogden said.
    Unique features of the apps, which meet critical curriculum needs from 7th grade through college, include:
    • All-in-one functionality for performing calculations in proper math notation; graphing and exploring functions, equations and inequalities; constructing and exploring geometric figures; creating, plotting and analyzing data in lists and spreadsheets.
    • Interactive keyboard that toggles between math notation and QWERTY configurations for placing notes and instructions alongside problems.
    • Dynamically linked multiple representations of problems that encourage students to make crucial connections by observing how equations change as they touch and interact with shapes, graphs and objects on the screen.
    • Familiar operations for creating and saving documents and sharing them using email, iTunes®, and other file sharing options.
    • Interaction with the built-in iPad camera interface that enables students to take photos, import them into the app and overlay graphs and equations on them to illustrate abstract math principles in the physical world.
    In addition, the TI-Nspire CAS App for iPad has a powerful built-in Computer Algebra System (CAS) which enables students to symbolically solve equations, factor and expand variable expressions, complete the square, find derivatives, compute limits, find exact solutions in irrational form and much more.

    TI-Nspire Apps for iPad will be featured in two full days of workshops and break-out sessions at the 2013 T3 International Conference held March 8-10 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. 

    The TI-Nspire App for iPad and TI-Nspire CAS App for iPad are available for $29.99 each from the App Store on iPad or at http://www.AppStore.com.  Teachers are eligible to receive a free, one-year license of the TI-Nspire and TI-Nspire CAS Teacher Software with purchase of one of the TI-Nspire Apps for iPad.  Detailed information about the TI-Nspire Apps for iPad, including a brief video overview, is available at http://education.ti.com/ipad .
