Re: New T-85 user



That's the knack.. if you don't use it for games at all, I seriously ownder
how you manage to fill up your calc with 32k. The only thing I can imagine
in a basic-sourced code that will do some form of symbolic differentation,
but you probably have a better chance fitting that in 28k using Z80 asm
than under three times as much in ti-basic. then again, maybe not, most of
the math stuff is in rom. I am seriously interested though, aside from the
usual handy tool for general math stuff, what programs are on there, not
related to games?
