What does Zstandard actually do?

Sets the graph window to the normal setting. It's like entering this:

-10->Xmin
10->Xmax
1->Xscl
-10->Ymin
10->Ymax
1->Yscl
1->Xres

Press [WINDOW] to see all of these and enter them manually.

Thanks. This is off topic, but how do you get things to work through the link port in programs?

Rtm, cuz I'm not sure. But I know it involves the commands Get( and Send(. I tried to make multi-player Tron with those, but the calc has to be waiting to get the variable or something. I think there's a topic somewhere on this forum about it.

I saw a program where you can down load programs at Cirrus site and it involved controlling another calculator with the linkport and I was wondering how that worked.

Are you sure it wasnt from the computer or a program in Asm? Cuz I don't think Basic is capable of controlling another calc.

It was assembly. Sorry I forgot about that.

Regardless of what it is, Zstandard still changes it to 1.

ZStandard can also be used as a ClrDraw if you didn't change your window settings (I used this before I found ClrDraw Rolling Eyes

)

Actually it still ClrDraws because before I had no idea what it did and I tried it and it worked. You can try it if you want.

It clears the graph screen any time you change the window settings. It's too bad too, because scrolling would be easy in Basic if it never did that.

I asked something about the screen being cleared everytime you change the window settings a long time ago on the Cirrus board, I think Maarten said you could use ASM to turn that off.

Might be worth it to check that out.

If that's true, that might be a nice addition to programs like Codex. Hint hint Justin W....

about the getcalc:
if the other calc is in wait mode (the pause, promt, or input command in basic or just at the home screen) then you can use getcalc( to recieve a variable from teh other calc. you can get any variable (A-Z,theta), list, string, matrix or graph setting (there may be afew more, but i think i covered them all

Probably Y= too.

Kinda off topic, but what do Get( and Send( do???

They're used with the CBL.

I remember somebody claimed you can also use getcalc( with a while loop, is this true?
