Title: A new Math Luminosity for nspire
Post by: The_King on November 14, 2013, 08:26:32 pm
Sometime ago i got this document by the name of nocalc.tns by ElementCoder for nspire. it was a great program for math practice. But it was limited to only fixed questions with fixed values everytime. However taking on that concept today started working a new improved version of  the same program calledTHE MATH LUMINOSITY. It will be in basic because 1. as nocalc was in basic and 2. i suck at lua. So first i will design the whole program in basic then with the help of someone lua-tise it. So give me your opinions about it.

Planned for mathlumis:
addition
subtraction
multiplication
division
sinusoidal
expression/equation solving

Sounds good, nice to see you working on your first project  :) (Im new here too)
The link to the original nocalc is here: http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/430/43091.html
I have made math games like this before, and I know its a fun thing to make and to use. I hope you have as much fun making this as others will using it  :)

So I assume it would be some math quiz educational game? Randomized values would definitively be nice. :)

However, for every instance of 5 smileys used in a single post, a kitten die. D:

@loser thanks Thats the one. Now it will make my life whole lot easier.

@DJ Omnimaga Next time i will keep that in mind

Oh wow, I never thought that program would be useful someday :P. I actually sort of ported it after seeing it for a z80 calc. I'm curious to see what you're goin to make of it :)

i figured that instead the values of roots for example will be a list and RandSamp will provide one value from the list
Also I am figuring on adding multiple difficulties into the program. and thanks for your program @elementcoder

That are foodmideas. I was pretty inexperienced when I wrote this. I even attempted some weird upgrade/patching system which didn't quite work out :P Lua will make it more interesting for sure as you can use a timer then, adding an extra challenge. Good luck with it :)

before I begin
someone give a detail guide about for, loop and while i dont understand it and ti basic wiki does not help too much

This is your programming friend  hking1
and i am here now to show a concept in my mind about the math luminosity

The program will be released in parts for beta testers Check the bottom for estimated date for stable public release
 Currently I am working on roots and addition/ subtraction

Then I will have two update systems provided:
A whole new program version and one as a patch for those who already have it so they can just not lose their info (talk about this afterwards)

The Program has four difficulties (wont tell more than that for now (spoilers))
It will also feature leveling up so that there is more than just a basic practice to do in math (yes the questions get tougher and tougher as you go and lower difficulties get locked for you)

For now this is the news

Come back again to see some more

Do tell me what you think of it
Pls fill the poll http://ourl.ca/20064 (http://ourl.ca/20064)so i can work on  math concept by public demand

 
on the side note

I am estimating that the program will ready in its first stable version by march 2014


over and out

I dont see a reason to incorperate levling up. If someone wants to do more difficult math, they shouldnt have to do a lot of easier math before they are able to  :P

yeah well i showed in there there are four difficulties  if someone wants to start with a harder level they need to finish a hard test before they can activate it.
well i am still working on it i might change or modify it

by the way i forgot to say that this is based on perfecting your math. If you are at a particular level already they will be jumpleveled for their difficulty

You could add equations, like linear and quadratic equations.

i have that in my mind
although at most difficult level it can have up to quartic functions as well

within a week i will get the first beta out. it will only have one difficulty and roots and addition when it comes out. meanwhile do i will start on subtraction and multiplication by then

i postponded the beta due to some errors and i have tests going on so dec 15 i will come back to this

while i do that  pls fill the poll  (http://ourl.ca/20064;viewResults) to continue with your support

The first alpha/beta version is attached in the first post now it is not much and variables defined in it will change. Do tell me what I can change in it

Today I start this program again from scratch
the first version i made was made in a hurry so it was not exactly the quality I wanted
If you still have that version feel free to criticize both +/- I am open to both.
Guaranteed, the next version will be much better
Anyway now that my end of term tests are over, I can focus on all the 3 projects I have
Wish me Luck
