What would you guys say if I were secretly developing a program entitled TI-CHEF in ASM for the TI-86?

Here's some preliminary info for all of you to feast on:

The first three recipies included will be as follows:

- Hot Fudge Sundae Cake -
- Homemade Macaroni and Cheese-
- Magic Pudding -

(it has not yet been determined if there will be any other versions - maybe if demand for this program is high enough :)

Current Key Feature(s):

- A power down button allows you to stop and resume your recipie without losing your place

I would be worried about getting food poisioning from that.

I would like to warn you that this is a truly powerful programme not to be messed around with. I just crossed it over with the pheared "good-times" virus, and my calc reached a semi-sentient state. However, the second after, it opened a dimensional rift and left our time-space continuum. I am planning to complain at TI and ask them to give me a new calc.

Good Luck. TI usually doesn't give new calculators for that sort of thing.

They don't state in the manual that "you shouldn't use nth compexity binary loops crossed with powerful random number generators or calculator could disappear into subspace", so I think guarantee applies. Moreover, the darn calc sarcastically laughed just before disappearing, so I am considering suing them for the moral prejudice too.

They don't state that you shouldn't type exec("4afc") either, but these sorts of requirements are implied.

After analyzing the program's approxamatly ((2.42589809216*10^107)/ (6.730860581155*10^105)) lines, I have come up with a way to find out the random number that was generated by this program!!!!!

1. Run the program. (Duh!)
2. Type an "in-range" number and press "ENTER".
(Such as 1)
3. Type "2nd", "STO->", "SIN", "ENTER", "ENTER"
4. Enjoy Nick's ticalc.org password!!!


(FYI: there are (36^69)/(36/68) lines of code)
(FYI: I KNOW everyone already figured that out...)

Hmm, it almost looks like you meant to write (38^68) where you put (38/68). But then again, if you were able to comprehend even slightly this magnificent program, you probably would never make a mistake, so I guess I msut be misinterpreting it.

Its not my fault. Since Random Numbar Generator knew I was cheating, it used my GraphLink and computer to hack into ticalc.org and change this post, making me look like an idiot.

I DID mean (36^68).

(Right now mt TI-86 is locked in a lead box and every trace of RNG was removed from my system so it doesn't change THIS post...)

Wow -- the docs are bigger than the program! That doesn't happen often...

This is an amazing program, Nick! <hoping to get root @ nickd.org just for saying that :)>

Ken

Actually, documentation exceeding program length is rather common.

I can't believe it! I learned ancient Sumerian in one lesson after using this program! Additionally, I took an online IQ test. My IQ is now so high, there's no category in existance that even comes close to my IQ of 1,000,000!

I an now working on a way to combine the thoughts of the entire human race from the dawn of creation to the end of time into one computer. I've figured out the time travel systems and everything, just by using this program! Thanks Nick!!!!!

If you had truly mastered this program, your IQ would be 100,000,069

<sob>It's so...<bawl>TRUE!!!!!!</bawl>I'm a mindless inferior scum!!!</sob>

Don't quote me as saying that, though.

Don't worry, I won't quote that.

Hrm looks like this will never be as big as the anarchy Trail board....

Here are some topics that will most certainly cause more posts:

Politics
TI-83+
Macs
56k dial-up connections
Microsoft/Linux
SDk
acoustic modems

:-)

You forgot a topic: posts relating to whether or not this will pass the anarchy post.

Who cares?! This program can adapt to all of the above!!!

hehe, good point!

Of course it's a good point. Anything proclaiming the superiority of RANDOM NUMBAR GENERATOR is a good point!

That claim of yours is pure nonsense! At its current 251 posts, this board is already well over half the size of the anarchy trial board and is still growing quickly!

There have been boards about politics, the TI-83+, and the SDK before (in some cases a combination of them). There are also many boards containing flames related to SDK, Mac, or Windows vs. Linux.

For general enlightenment, here is a list of all boards (over than this one) which have over 150 posts. At the current 251, most of them have already been surpassed:

13 June 2000: Sock It To 'Em: New TI-OS? (253)
7 June 2000: AMS v2.04 for TI-89 and TI-92+ Released (220)
13 May 2000: Feature: C Programming Editorial (156)
4 May 2000: Feature: A Modest Proposal (234)
23 March 2000: Win95.CIH Spotted In 83PlusAsm v1.01 (160)
2 February 2000: Ion86 (199)
30 October 1999: TI-83 Plus SDK Released (298)
25 October 1999: Newsboard Anarchy Trial (417)
23 October 1999: Tinux by Olivier Borowski (169)
19 October 1999: Sam Heald Responds to 83+ Problems (189)
8 May 1999: Street Fighter II v0.19 Beta (156)
5 March 1999: Bryan Rabeler and ticalc.org Part Ways (174)
11 January 1999: TI announces TI-83 Plus graphing calculator (167)


As you see, even combining TI-83+ and SDK only gave 298 posts, slightly more than are currently here, but which we will certainly surpass soon. The TI-83+ political board only got a miserable 189!

Its currently at 263, mainly because most people in the US are asleep now unless they're in Hawaii and possibly Alaska. It should pick up when Europe and America wake up tomorrow. Only these two remain to be conquered:

30 October 1999: TI-83 Plus SDK Released (298)
25 October 1999: Newsboard Anarchy Trial (417)

These two should be relatively easy tasks to conquer if anyone has the diligence to get down this far on the page.

what else is there TO read?

nothing. Other than this highly enlightening forum, of course !!!
