since they are worthless anyways

Phijkchu_Pikachu May 2, 2020 7:02 PM general

so the only reason you'd use one is to program it to solve things

legorhin May 2, 2020 7:03 PM general

in high school math i had to prove to my teachers that I knew the material until they decided my calculator programming was not cheating

Gent May 2, 2020 7:03 PM general

Well if you're smart enough to do that, take your degree

mint May 2, 2020 7:03 PM general

i wish

legorhin May 2, 2020 7:03 PM general

its because some calculators have wireless functionality which allows messaging gent

Phijkchu_Pikachu May 2, 2020 7:03 PM general

I am fairly sure programming a calculator is not the hardest thing in the world

Gent May 2, 2020 7:03 PM general

I see

Phijkchu_Pikachu May 2, 2020 7:03 PM general

that too

legorhin May 2, 2020 7:03 PM general

or you can dump notes into apps

Gent May 2, 2020 7:04 PM general

No clue what the purpose for that is

mint May 2, 2020 7:04 PM general

i am mathematically illiterate if that makes any sense and bad at tests in general

Phijkchu_Pikachu May 2, 2020 7:04 PM general

courses that allowed calculators forced you to use calculators that the school sells

legorhin May 2, 2020 7:04 PM general

it lets you do stuff like program a quadratic formula thing where you give it A B and C

mint May 2, 2020 7:04 PM general

yea, they arent that hard to program

legorhin May 2, 2020 7:05 PM general

they are less straightforward than C programming though

mint May 2, 2020 7:05 PM general

you can just find programs online

legorhin May 2, 2020 7:05 PM general

I wrote all of mine

legorhin May 2, 2020 7:05 PM general

finding them online doesn't teach you anything

Phijkchu_Pikachu May 2, 2020 7:05 PM general

>just find it online spoken like a typical cs major

Phijkchu_Pikachu May 2, 2020 7:05 PM general

Kappa

Phijkchu_Pikachu May 2, 2020 7:06 PM general

God I hate CS as a field

mint May 2, 2020 7:06 PM general

im cis alright

mint May 2, 2020 7:06 PM general

not even in the math and cs deparment

mint May 2, 2020 7:06 PM general

heck, it not even in the school of science

mint May 2, 2020 7:07 PM general

its just wattered down cs

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TI-BASIC

TI-BASIC

TI-BASIC is the official name of a BASIC-like language built into Texas Instruments (TI)'s graphing calculators. TI-BASIC is a language family of three different and incompatible versions, released on different products: TI-BASIC 83 (on Z80 processor) for TI-83 series, TI-84 ...

my first language i mastered

mint May 2, 2020 7:08 PM general

ope

mint May 2, 2020 7:08 PM general

thats honestly great

mint May 2, 2020 7:08 PM general

i decided to learn ruby for no reason at all

legorhin May 2, 2020 7:08 PM general

it makes me appreciate not needing to write TI-BASIC

mint May 2, 2020 7:08 PM general

my first that is

mint May 2, 2020 7:08 PM general

haha

mint May 2, 2020 7:09 PM general

yeah, basix is well, basic

legorhin May 2, 2020 7:09 PM general

ruby is more fun than node

mint May 2, 2020 7:09 PM general

oh i enjoy it alot

mint May 2, 2020 7:09 PM general

not a huge js fan in general

mint May 2, 2020 7:09 PM general

im honestly terribile at programing

mint May 2, 2020 7:09 PM general

hence why im in it

mint May 2, 2020 7:10 PM general

but ruby is real nice and easy to read

legorhin May 2, 2020 7:10 PM general

yeah only people that don't know how to code need to take classes in it Kappa

Phijkchu_Pikachu May 2, 2020 7:10 PM general

I don't know how python compares to other languages but I find it straightforward

Phijkchu_Pikachu May 2, 2020 7:10 PM general

and I am an 80 year old man

mint May 2, 2020 7:10 PM general

puthon is nice

mint May 2, 2020 7:11 PM general

i like langauges that take advantage of whitespace

legorhin May 2, 2020 7:11 PM general

python is very slow but its easy to code in

mint May 2, 2020 7:11 PM general

i tried to learn jade/pug for that reason

legorhin May 2, 2020 7:11 PM general

at the moment my favorite language is C#

mint May 2, 2020 7:11 PM general
