By Darkerline and Weregoose, no less. But they do have a point. Line breaks use up as much memory as a single character, so they're not really a good measure of program size. That, and TI-BASIC can vary from insanely long and complicated functions in a single line, to the single-line then and end commands. Still, it's an interesting exercise (as long as you outlaw Darkerline's method...)

I know it's true... I can easily find ways of making programs small, but these responses looked like pure attacks, as if they think I'm not smart enough to know it does nothing (basing a program on lines)... Let it be known that I was merely going for the primary goal!

I know how sometimes I will talk to a person, and they think I am talking down to them, because they simply don't understand, whereas they will be talking about some kind of sport, and the three question marks will light up over my head.

:confused:

You lost me at "three question marks" :biggrin: :biggrin:

just kidding... Rolling Eyes

Still I don't really get what you are trying to say. Let me show you how I understood what you said...

I'm the one that feels talked down too, but in your content, it also says I don't understand. But I do! Lines are nothing else but 1 token size objects that occur in a program.

Anyway, just try my code out and start complaining against the owner of the topic Razz

I know you understand, it was the talking down to part. Sorry for the confusion.

I know darkerline... But the challenge here is to use the least amount of lines possible!

Not really.
I'm sorry I was gone and couldn't explaine this, but I ment to discourage really long programs. It is cool to see woodswolf's awesome lines with Δ in them, but I'd rather have size and speed over amount of lines used. That being said, if you guys want it to be the least number of lines, then just say so. :)

Oh and about topic owner, I'd consider anyone at UTI the owner of this topic; I just set forth rules and made the first post.

EDIT: woodswolf: Awesome program. I like 1.

The Matrix:
Quote:
Clrhome
While 1
Randint(1,16
for(b,1,11
if b <9
Output(b,ans,randint(0,1
if b>3
output(b-3,ans,"
end
end


And with some adjustments you can get multiple strings =) That does slow it down alot though, and if you want them at random moments it takes a whole load of changes. But it ispretty easy to make the strings of random lenght of course.

*Bump*

Alrighty, I have two new programs!

GridOff
AxesOff
ClrDraw
getKey
Repeat getKey
Pt-On(Xmin+3ΔXint(1+32rand),Ymin+3ΔYint(1+21rand),2+(rand>.9
End


This next one is two within one. If A=0 it will not erase any lines. If A≠0 it will erase every other line.
(Store a number into A)→A
GridOff
AxesOff
ClrDraw
getKey
{0,0,Xmin,Ymin,0
Repeat getKey
{Ans(3),Ans(4),Xmin+ΔXint(95rand),Ymin+ΔYint(63rand),Anot(Ans(5
Line(Ans(1),Ans(2),Ans(3),Ans(4),not(Ans(5
End

Here's a small program I wrote which takes text, displays it backwards, and stores both the original text and the backward text as strings.

[font="Courier New"]
:" "→backtxt
:InpSt "Text?", txt
:For(G,lngth txt,1,-1)
:sub(txt,G,1)→sC
:backtxt+sC→backtxt
:End
:ClLCD
:Outpt(1,1,sub(backtxt,2,lngth backtxt)-1)


The original text is stored in txt and the backward text is stored as backtxt.

This is for the 85/86, I take it. They should make an 85/86 BASIC sub-forum...

That would be neat.

Although, I don't mind code for non z80 calcs here. It's as good a place as any.
As for that program, I'm sure that if I had an 85/86 I'd be saying "Looks Cool!" right now. Smile

The TI-86 is a Z80. As a matter of fact, it is the most powerful Z80-based calculator TI ever released.

:blush: Ooops. Sorry about that.

Are the z80 calcs the 73,81,82,83,84,85, and 86 then?
Please correct me when I'm wrong. Smile

Unless TI has spontaneously added one in less than five minutes before this post (yeah right :biggrin:), then yes. (I'm ignoring that you didn't differentiate between some members of the 83+ series)
