Is there a command in Basic programming to reset all memory? Kind of like duplicating the 2ND MEM -> 7:Reset -> ALL -> 1:All Memory -> 2:Reset ?
Not without the assistance of an assembly program, no. I used to have code that I'd forget to finish cause RAM clears, but that was because of issues with Mirage OS at the time.
As tifreak8x said, you'd have to invoke an ASM stub reset the RAM. Of course, if it was a TI-83 non-Plus, you could exploit the fact that the BASIC command expr("") crashes the calculator, but that's not a good solution. Wink
So, it is only possible to reset the RAM and not the entire memory (RAM, Archive, and everything) ?

I'm sure there's a bcall to reset all of the memory. I think the larger question is why a BASIC program would want to do that at all.
