Program Review for Maverick
Maverick is a flight simulator game for the TI-92 by Ashu Chaturvedi. It is a
clone of the TI-85 version of Maverick by Ryan Taylor and Tony Bennett. When
starting a new game in Maverick, it gives you the option to pick what airplane
you want to use. There also appears to be a bonus airplane that is the best
airplane and is password protected. The downside of Maverick is that it is way
to slow to be played with ease. I give Maverick 1 and a half stars because of
the speed of the game which is because Maverick is a TI-BASIC program and not
a Fargo Program.
Program Review for Newton
If I knew what Newton's Method was supposed to do, and if the program would
have come with documentation I would have given it a better review than I did,
but since I didn't i was forced to give it a bad review. Newton's Method
appears to figure out somthing Newton's Formula(or something of that nature).
It has 3 prompts for varibles (I believe that is what they are for) and an
exact/approximate/auto selector which i believe is for the way the TI-92 will
output the answer. I can only give this program 1/2 a star because it has an
aparent function but there is nothing saying it does or doesn't.
Program Review for Memory
Memory is a rather decent memory clone for the TI-92. I have not found any
bugs in it. There does seem to be a feature missing though. The feature that
is missing is the ability to exit the program while playing it by a means that
is not pressing [ON] to get out of it. Other than that the only other thing
that I can see wrong with it is the slow building of a level. I give Memory
3 and a half stars because I believe that it is a fairly good program.
Program Review for Word Power
I can not give Word Power a review because I can not figure out what it is
supposed to do. Therefor I can only give Word Power a rating of 1/2 stars
because it has an aparent function but there is nothing saying it does or
doesn't.
