Using Str -> Equ( and StoreGDB you can easily get much (about 151) more.
Quote: 2) 999->Dim(L1 = 9000 bytes each element holds 7 2-digit numbers, so a string would have to have 14*999 (13986) characters and a string can only hold 4797 characters.
you will only fit 2 lists like that into your ram but you can fit 24000 characters into your RAM with strings. If you want to get technical, each element holds 8 2-digit numbers, including the power of 10.

Just run Calcsys from time to time and screw with your memory. When it gets cleared, say 'Oops! My game got deleted!' this is the excuse I always end up using. |

A=123456789 //positive integer number
B=3 //sub start
C=6 //sub end
Int(A*10^-Int(log(A)+1-C->A //cut of right part
A-Int(A*10^-Int(log(A)+2-B)*10^Int(log(A)+2-B->A //cut of left part
Result:
3456

But I don't want to use more than 1 string.

A = -1.2345678901234E25
boolean part: A=abs(A
1st 2-digit number: int(log(A
boolean part : Ans=abs(Ans
14 - digit number: A/10^(int(log(A
divide into another 7 2-digit numbers.
Total: 2 boolean numbers (0 to 1) and 8 2-digit numbers (0 to 99
that is 18 bytes. 16 are used for the 2-digit numbers (100/256 of the byte used), and 2 used for the 2 booleans (1/256 of the byte used). Sad isn't it?
Edit: Calcsys is an App.
Edit Edit: List don't suck as much as matrices, but they aren't as good as strings.

I was using the [2nd] + [log] variation to 'save space'

Get an 89. It has custom integer and string names, archive, lots of Ram, and other great stuff. Oh, wait... I forgot how much they cost... |

Ah, I see.
Quote: Get an 89. It has custom integer and string names, archive, lots of Ram, and other great stuff. Oh, wait... I forgot how much they cost... Sweet, but I'd probably get a laptop before getting any kind of better calc or pda, since I'll probably need (as in go and do Informatics, where laptops are a must) one when I go to college. Also note that I seem to have this black hole (yes, from space) in my wallet/pocket when it comes to money and don't have a job either.
BTW, I'm currently changing my RPG's game design into one with only a couple of big(ger) area's and a whole bunch of small ones (inside houses, randomly generated from a fixed seed), it will take place (mostly) inside a castle with all kinds of rooms and buildings on/around the main square and ofcourse in the area just around the castle... the story will be that you're a little peasant who want's to try his chances at becoming rich, famous, and powerfull in the big castle near his farm. |

| You could make the part inside the houses have more detailed pictures. |

Yes, I could, but I'm already using a 15*10 (1 tile = 6*6 pixels) grid for the maps, which I think looks nice, especially in urban areas.
I might use 8*8 after all, to be able to put a bit of 3D effect into the castle's walls/building sprites. Or maybe 8*8 outside, 6*6 inside.

| I'm saying use 6x6 for the outside part, 8x8 for the inside houses part (or other sizes). |

You can't do this to me, I'm only in 8th grade accelerated math!
Quote: Int(A*10^-Int(log(A)+1-C->A //cut of right part
A-Int(A*10^-Int(log(A)+2-  *10^Int(log(A)+2-B->A //cut of left part
Quote: 14 - digit number: A/10^(int(log(A
Could someone just give me a way to simply sub( numbers? Or if I had the number 09090909090909, how would I decompress that to
09-a
09-b
09-c
09-d
09-e
09-f
09-g
And copy it for some sprites and fun! |

The code in my post was a sub( routine for variables.
Here's how you could use it...
(stores first 2 digit number, second, third, etc. into L1)
109090909090909->A //that 1 is to prevent the calc from removing that first 0, the routine will ignore it since the for loop start at 2
.5Int(log(A->Dim(L1 //reserve space for 0.5(length(A)-1) numbers
For(X,2,Int(log(A)+1),2 //loops through A, from left to right with steps of 2
X->B //cut off everything before X
X+1->C //cut of everything after X+1
Int(A*10^-Int(log(A)+1-C->D
A-Int(A*10^-Int(log(A)+2-B)*10^Int(log(A)+2-B->D
D->L1(.5X //store the 2 digit number to the list
End
You could also do it like this of course:
109090909090909->Ø
2->Y
3->Z
Int(Ø*10^-Int(log(Ø)+1-Z->Ø
D-Int(Ø*10^-Int(log(Ø)+2-Y)*10^Int(log(Ø)+2-Y->A
4->Y
5->Z
Int(Ø*10^-Int(log(Ø)+1-Z->B
B-Int(Ø*10^-Int(log(Ø)+2-Y)*10^Int(log(Ø)+2-Y->B
6->Y
7->Z
Int(Ø*10^-Int(log(Ø)+1-Z->C
C-Int(Ø*10^-Int(log(Ø)+2-Y)*10^Int(log(Ø)+2-Y->C
etc.

No errors over here, though I don't get the proper results either, probably made a typo somewhere... the previous routine does work though, just use the starting and ending variables (B and C in the example) to get those 2-digit numbers out of the big number.
EDIT: HAHAHAHA, Why all this trouble, you can just convert it to a string, use sub and then convert it back with expr(

You would then have the problem of a decimal.
I convert 1.23477708686E24 to a string.
I get the 2-digit numbers: "1." "23" "47" "77" "08" 68" "6E" "24".
I was supposed to get "12" "34" "77" "70" "86" "24".
You see the problem.
You could do it like:
Code:
:While 9 < log(abs(X
:X/10 -> X
:End
:While 9 > log(abs(X
:10X -> X
:End
:int(X -> X
You would then have a number between 1 000 000 000 and 9 999 999 999 that you could convert to a string with no problems but you would lose 3 of the 2-digit numbers.

I'm a genius - Use my code if you plan on doing anything like this in the future
n=Number
l=Length
s=Start
int(log(n)+1->L
Lbl a
if (s+k-1)>L:L-S+1->K
10^(L-S+1)->D
iPart(10^KfPart(n/d))->X
If s>L:0->X
I feel smart now 
Finally I got that basic feeling again! |

L is just some random storing variable
Good idea with the pictures!
