Ah, sorry if I was unclear. I was not thinking in terms of efficiency,
per se. I am referring more to the limits of the abilities ti-basic
gives the programmer. For example, the string processing in ti-basic is
almost useless, lists are poor substitutes for arrays, etc. There are
certain math-related and other tasks that I simply can't do in basic.
These are things that I could program on the computer, but would rather
have on the calculator because then I would have them when I need them.
In any case, thanks for the tip, I will look for this c-compiler you
mentioned.
