Re: Assembly Math programs (was TI-82 programmer at your service.)



With all this talk about almost no ASM math programs I would like to bring
up the idea of a new project, concentrating on this making programs and
routines, or possibly closer investigating the ROM.  If someone would like
to lead it Im sure we could come up with somethings.
