I'm looking at an asm tutorial and I was wondering if it was possible to edit a BASIC program from an assembly program. I thought that I saw something about that somewhere, but I'm not sure where.

No it can't! I can't program my calculator to fly! It can do anything the calculator has the hardware for.

Hmm, you might be able to turn the calc into a helikopter. Just add rotor blades and have the calculator control them by sending signals through the link port.

Actually, making a helichopter is easy.

You do not even need a calculator.

2 motors

Small pice of balsa wood

Very light batteries that produce much power.

Compass

Two properllers one small one smaller


Instructions:

Put together using glue. Make it look like a hellichopter!

Now, place the compas in the middle and make sure the bigger blade is on top.

Wire the batteries to the top rotor's motor, then put a screw through the compass and one to the center of the compas needle.

Set it up so that when the hellichopter starts moving one way, the compass needle comes in contact with a screw turning on the tale rotor.

Basically, the tail rotor turns on and off rapidly depending on how stable the helichopter is.

Release and you will never see it again.

Not sure, but I'm all in favor of one! Maybe a few routines to help some of the more redundant programming stuff. Very Happy

We could, but it would be a major pain for us.

For example, it would take pages of asm code just to make a cursor blink.
