Hello everyone,

Please use this thread to comment on the following three programs, submitted by Jonathan L. Moscovici.

If you wish your improvements to be published along with your name, please let me know.

Optionally, you can show your own code on this thread as well; however, please specify IF you want Haulwind to publish it in its network AND whether improvements made in this thread should be included.

All the best,

Here we present a program to convert quadratic expression in canonical
form. A(x – H)2 + K to general form Ax2 + Bx + C. Program for TI-83 calculator By Jonathan L. Moscovici.

Here we present a program to compute the area of a triangle using the
coordinates of its vertices A, B and C. Program for TI-83 calculator By Jonathan L. Moscovici. Using material from Kimberling, C. "Triangle Centers and Central Triangles." Congr. Numer. 129, 1-295, 1998.

Here we present a program to solve the system:
Ax + By = C, Dx + Ey = F. Program for TI-83 calculator By Jonathan L. Moscovici.
Using material from Weisstein, Eric W. "Cramer's Rule." From MathWorld--A Wolfram Web Resource. http://mathworld.wolfram.com/CramersRule.html

Umm, are you trying to sell us a program that has less than 10 lines of code?

Umm, dude, it's actually 14 lines he's trying to sell.

Optimized:


Code:


3 lines

No, 4 lines, since you had an extra blank line on the first line. That's like $10 of value you just forgot about.

Code:


fix'd

Also, learn to use code blocks. [ code ]//your code here[/ code ] (without the spaces).

I have a request: That all of these <20 line programs be bundled into a single larger program that offers their functionality without significant slowing down the calc by filling up the VAT. Would that be possible?

It'll be worth less then. You have to think like a businessman!

Or business women! (I don't really know...)

Considering that the author is listed as "Jonathan L. Moscovici," I don't think the feminine gender is the right one to use.

But it's a large group of people. Perhaps there is one woman in that group

Based on the Laws of Equality, for each 5 employees, 1.73 of them will be women in a technology job. Since a company this large is bound to have at least 50 people, I think Tanner stands uncorrected, since there are probably 17.3 women working for the organization.

Dear _player1537, thank you for your recommendations, code tags will be used henceforth as suggested. Also, we do have have women on our team, as highlighted on the linkedin company employee overview page.

Qwerty.55 and Ashbad, the option on combining all programs into one with a menu and listing it under one thread is currently being discussed on our end. Can you delve more on the subject? What are your thoughts _player1537?

It shouldn't be too hard to combine all of your programs into one big program, a couple of If-Then-End blocks with code should do it. Also, remember to add a cool menu, or use the DCSB GUI Menu.

Just to make sure, you know that you don't need to use Dear So-and-So, right? This isn't an email, you can just respond normally. Also, don't feel like you have to "sell" us anything. The things that we've seen you write (program-wise) have been done numerous times before. So, rather than use this forum like a public market to sell your programs to, it would probably be beneficial to use it as a place to get help with programs and feedback.

Hi _player1537,

Full disclosure: these programs are free and their code is published freely; though, it seems that it should be listed on one thread and with one menu, according to recent reviews.

My goal is to gather your feedback about these programs, in order to assess if there is demand and interest in pursuing further developments, without selling anything to contributors.

In exchange for recent improvements of the code published on multiple threads, I am open to listing all you as contributing editors on copies publishing in other mediums (slideshare, scribd, docstoc, etc.), if you're interested.

Please let me know of your thoughts.

Umm, what was the point of that post? You not only -t-r-i-p-l-e- quadruple posted, but you just quoted people without even responding to them. Try not to do stuff like that here, please.

Hi souvik1997,

I apologize for cross-posting initially, I have asked an administrator to delete all the redundant posts.

I love that... "There are 17.3 people working for this company" What does 3/10 of a person look like?
