TI-BASIC / Graphing in Ti-Nspire Basic?
« on: February 22, 2012, 09:26:50 pm »
My teacher approached me recently asking about a program for the nspire.  she showed me one program on the Ti-84 thats kind of hard to explain, but it basically had to do with graphing.  She asked me if I could do a similar program for the nspire, as it has to do with what we are currently learning.  Our class only has nspires, and she wants to make it interactive with the class.  I told her at first that it probably wouldn't be possible in the nspires basic language, but I told her I would look into it.  Does anyone have any types of ideas that I could go about doing such a thing?  I was considering trying in lua, but I wanted to see if there was an easier alternative.

Introduce Yourself! / Haven't gotten around to introducing myself!

Hey guys! I've been on the forums for quite some time, but I've never really posted.  As you can see I joined in May of 2010, which is quite some time ago.  So basically, here's my story!

My name is Nick, I am 16 years old, and I am a junior in high school.  I go to an advanced school that only allows 72 students to get in per year, while about 500 try to get in.  They require TI-Nspires for freshmen, which is what got me started.  Every previous year required TI-84's, so I was happy about getting a cool new calculator.  My sister (who owned a TI-84) said that people in her class had Pokemon on their calculators.  My Nspire arrived in the mail and all I thought about was games.  I looked online and did not seem to have much luck.  I made an account here and tried ndless, but now I know it didn't work because I had a newer OS.  The next year I saw that a new ndless had came out, and started to piece it all together.  One night I got everything working, and played Pokemon and Mario at school the next day, and was the coolest kid in school!   8)

I started to learn more and more about calculators and programming in general.  I had a java class and did very well in it.  I started to feel like I wanted to get into calculator programming!  I started working on some basic programs in lua for the 3.0 OS and would test them out on some of my friends CXs.  About 1/3 of my class bought a CX (their parents that is), even though I explained they weren't really different from our Nspires.  For my birthday a few months ago, I received a Casio Prizm from my parents!  I have been learning Casio-Basic recently, and made a few games.  I've been really impressed by it so far, and have been trying to convince my friends and teachers to abandon TI.  Unfortunately, my teachers all completely praise TI, and my attempts have not succeeded.  I hope to eventually learn some new programming languages, and hope to be a software engineer someday! :D

More about me:

I am a professional juggler and i train about 3 hours a day to try and be the best.  Juggling leaves me with little time to do just about anything else :P I have competed in places such as Las Vegas and Springfield, Illinois, and I hope to one day be the best juggler in the world.  Ask any questions you would like about that!  As you can tell from my username, I am a huge Pokemon fan.  I battle competitively and spend just about all of my free time that I'm not juggling doing that.  I don't have many friends in case you couldn't tell :P  So yeah. That's about it.  Well, I also play chess, piano, and solve rubik's cubes for fun.  Juggling has made me pretty athletic, so I'm pretty good at just about any sport, my favorite being baseball.
