Kirk Meyer Releases Fast 3D Grapher for TI-83+
Posted by Andy on 12 August 2002, 04:44 GMT

Kirk Meyer of Detached Solutions released a flash application Graph³. It is faster than the TI-89's built-in grapher. It features rotation, zooming, tracing, and more. It also draws either wireframe or hidden surface plots (and rotation is fast with either).

Update (Andy): Version 1.0 is now available, which fixes some bugs as well as compatibility with OS version 1.13.

I am a Ti-89, ti-92, and ti-83 programmer and i think that this program is the best flash application ever created for the ti-83+...it is faster than the ti-89 and ti-92 3d grapher and does nearly as good..on a calculator that is nearly half the price i paid for either my ti-89 or my ti-92..and for those immature weirdo's it is only a POSTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's good to see you're still active, didn't you retire a while ago? I never knew you lived so close to me... freaky

I liked your chmasc and pterodactyl programs. I wish the link port still worked on my 86...

Remember the OS 1.14 incident on the TI-PLC article sometime back? Me and the parrot head had that problem with TI (3D) Graph-Link.

00ps, I didn't know that the comment boards automatically put 'http://' at the front of a site...it was supposed to read:

mailto:RCTParRoThEaD@HoTMaiL.cOm

It would've have opened up your default email handler (Outlook Express, Netscape Mail, etc.) with a new message going to the parrot head...my bad...

I wonder if you can do that with javascript automatically...

javascript: window.location.href= "mailto:RCTParRoThEaD@ HoTMaiL.cOm"

(take out the 3 spaces and put that in the URL bar... see if it works, i didn't try it yet)

wait... try this

javascript:self.close();

HAHAHA!

MUAHAHAHAHA.. er... um...

Actually, on most newer browsers, it will give you a "confirm" prompt that asks you if you really want to close the page. I've noticed on the "old" netscape browsers (with javascript) don't give you the prompt... how annoying, you could set it up automatically, or embed it in a link... that's so mean... *gets evil idea*

Oh my gosh! Try putting this into notepad (or whatever _simple_ text editor you use)

<SCRIPT><!--
while (true){
self.close();
}
//--></SCRIPT>

then save it as "meantrick.htm" or whatever, just remember the quotes and the .htm extension.

Then, open the file. You can't get out of it! Even if you say you want to close it, you can't! Hahaha! You have to use Ctrl+Alt+Delete, which closes all the other pages as well! Try it!

So it doesn't work, eh? That's what I though when I saw it ... it'd just close your browser window. And that'd be the end of your evil script. Of course, you could just use an infinite loop to display a message box. It'd have the same effect ... and you could even have it display an evil message!

Oohh... try this one

(Think it might only work with IE, but I'm not really sure because Netscape suxx0rs)

<SCRIPT><!--
setTimeout("movealot()", 250);
function movealot(){
window.moveTo( Math.floor(Math.random()*75) ,Math.floor(Math.random() *75));
setTimeout("movealot()", 50);
}
//--></SCRIPT>

This one isn't too bad, but try it anyway.

I have the feeling that this script is supposed to shake the window, like an earthquake.

Yep. I assume you know Javascript (or a language similar like C/C++/Java,etc.)

I like the "earthquake" effect. It's just a pain when it goes on forever and you have to try to click the X button, though I've found it's easier to try to right-click the blue bar and then choose Close. Or hit alt and go down the menu using the keyboard commands.

Alt + F4 is usually a little easier.
And your assumption would be incorrect. I know a little of Javascript, but not enough to really write a script. But it's easy enough to understand. As for other programming languages, I only know TI-BASIC.

Oh yeah... forgot about Alt+F4. I haven't used that one in a long time.

Actually, if you want a mailto: tag, you should leave out the http:// and I think it works in netscape (the cr0ppy browser)

I didn't put it there (see above comment), it automatically was put there.
