    Any useful calculator programs you made??

    Just wondering if any of you had any useful programs for a ti-83, 83+, or silver edition. Not really lookin for games, but I do want to see what YOU have made. Just curious.

    Here's a couple i've made for kicks(don't write the stuff with asteriks by it or if it's italicized, it's hard to draw the same stuff from the calculator on the computer) :

    *Solving Quadratic formulas -
    :Input "A =",A
    :Input "B =",B
    :Input "c =",C
    :B^2-4AC->D *Store in D(sto->)
    :If D=0
    :Then
    Disp -b/(2A)
    :Else
    Disp (-b+square root(D))/(2A)
    Disp (-b-square root(D))/(2A)

    *Spoof Erase I made in class today -
    :ClrHome
    :Output(3,7,"delete memory?"
    :for(V,1,500
    :end
    :Output(3,7,"yes=1"
    :Output(4,7,"no=2"
    Disp ""
    Disp ""
    Disp ""
    Disp ""
    Disp ""
    :Input " Delete?:",A
    :ClrHome
    :Output(2,3,"deleting..."
    :for(V,1,600
    :End
    :Output(2,15,"3"
    :For(V,1,400
    :End
    :Output(3,15,"2"
    :For(V,1,400
    :End
    :Output(4,15,"1"
    :For(V,1,400
    :End
    :ClrHome
    :Output(4,2,"memory cleared!"
    :For(V,1,1000
    :End
    :ClrHome
    :Output(4,1,"have a nice day!"
    :For(V,1,2000

    nub

    Yes ive made tons of actually useful ti83 programs, but usually case specific (such as for a certain topic in math or chemistry). I never keep them around though

    Ive made a few "games" too, they can get quite complex in that language. I had one 20,000 bytes once

          We used to make animated 'adult' sequences. It would keep us busy during class. I don't have any of my old programs for the 83, I gave it to my sister when I got an 89. I made a few games, one was pretty cool. I called it 'birth control'. There was an egg in the center of the screen. Sperm would come flying at it and you'd have to shoot them before they got there. It's just like space invaders, but the sperm all flew towards the center of the screen instead. If a sperm did break through, then you had to abort it by pounding on some buttons really fast. If you didn't get it, then you got pregnant!

            Holy crap gimp, that's awesome!!!!

            Me and falconguy have made, like he said, lots of little stupid stuff... but nothing as amazingly complex as an actual game with, like, MOVING stuff!! (haha wow that sounded really stupid)
            We made this game, called it APICK, where you picked a minimum and maximum number, and it picked a random number between them, and then you guessed a number and it would tell you if you guessed too high or too low, and then at the end when you finally got it right told you how many turns it took. Then we made this really cool introduction scene for it, and just made the whole thing pretty snazzy-looking... and the game was surprisingly fun, during those long and boring civics lectures!!

              I made a calculator in VB. That was way useful. In fact it must have been the most useful thing I've learned in all of college. I mean, how many people need calculators, and how many people have them? And now I'm like, the god programmer of calculators that can add, subtract, multiply and divide.

                  I made a few small programs for Electronics. Not sure if I still have them tho. I havn't had a math or electronics class since the first half of the year, so I never use my calculator anymore.

                    I finally made one for synthetic division. yeah.. I also have a quad formula, but is quite a bit shorter . Ive programmed all of the 3d figure volume formulas, just cause I could.

                      Animated sequences are soo fun to make! We usually stick to sword fights or pirate attacks..but some of 'em that my friends and I make are pretty dirty.

                        My friends had some stinking DIRTY animated sequences. If you can imagine it, they made a movie for it.

                        Its amazing how dirty 7 frames can look repeated over and over again...
