Woops!    Won't happen again!

Quote from: DJ OmnimagaDexter yeah I noticed that the new Ndless softwares cannot run on newer hardware. I think that nowadays, TI just changes the calculator hardware to block Ndless, which might explain why they are so lax about it on older models and no longer patch Ndless as hard as they used to on an OS standpoint. I'm betting another exploit will be found in new hardwares, like with previous ones, though, but that might take longer.

Also good idea to start small. Then you can gradually move up the latter in terms of project size and complexity.

They're that invested in blocking Ndless!? That's really frustrating. The Ndless developers seem very invested in what they're doing, so I'm confident they'll find something.

Yup, the project is going pretty well! I had a few problems, but most of them are resolved! Right now it features a leader board and allows you to fill in pi! If you make a mistake you're asked to fill in your name and then asked if you want to play again. I have many more ideas for the application, like a more complex scoring system rather instead of solely how many digits you know (time bonus etc..), and I want to make it prettier.

Quote from: AraidiaDo you know any good resources to learn c++ or did you learn it in school(I'm currently learning Python)?

I'm self taught. I learned C++ first by following online video tutorials, after that I got a modern C++ book (C++ primer, note: there's also a book called c++ primer plus. that one is not as good though). That book and the world wide web taught me everything I know about the language.
If you want to learn C++ I suggest you follow a few online tutorials so you're sure you'd like it, if you do like it I suggest buying a book because online tutorials can often be misleading and teach you bad programming habits.

Quote from: Dudeman313Oh. I would sell the TI-83 on eBay, but that's just me.
Again, welcome! I hope you feel comfortable settling into our friendly and Walriified environment. Maybe eventually, you'll make your own !

I might sell it later, but my little brother ('little', 6 minutes younger ) needs a graphing calculator for school next year, so I'll lend him that one!
So far this community seems great and I definitely feel welcome!

Hey AeTIos, thank you for the warm welcome!
I'll definitely ask questions if I have any. Right now everything forum/calculator/Ndless related is going fine. 

Hello DJ Omnimaga,

I'm actually planning on collecting graphing calculators, so getting rid of the TI 83 and TI 83+ never crossed my mind!

18 months! Wow, I would've kicked myself if I had to wait that long because I accidentally updated my calculator. I'm very happy it didn't take so long this time!
Yeah, I've heard about the incompatibility with some hardware revisions, but the Ndless GitHub page says something about adding support for HW-W+, so maybe the Ndless team fixed it?  I hope so.

I'm installing the Ndless SDK right now! And I'm ~100% certain Ndless supports C++! 

I plan to make a program to aid the learning of the digits of pi! Obviously you don't really need Ndless for programs like that, but it's just a small project to learn how to work with the TI Nspire and the Ndless tools!

Hello, my name is Dexter!, I just joined this forum!

I've been a short-time 'lurker' and decided I wanted to join!
This community seems active and quite inviting, so I think I'll be happy being here, sharing my thoughts and projects!

I'm here mainly for the calculator community, I have three different graphing calculators, a TI 83, TI 83+, and I recently acquired a TI Nspire CX! (really happy about that!)

Today I re-added Ndless to my calculator after accidentally updating my system to 4.2.0 . (Yes, on accident, not my best moment..)
(I didn't expect Ndless to be updated so quickly, because I remember seeing that a previous update took ~7 months! But three days!? Really impressive!)
Right now I have a game boy colour emulator (gbc4nspire), nTris, nDoom, and nTxt installed on my system. (Really cool/handy programs!)

I plan to create applications for the TI Nspire CX as a learning experience for programming on (relatively) restrictive platforms.
The only programming language I'm competent at is C++, but that should be fine because it works well in the TI Nspire.
(I also understand C due to how similar it is to C++, but don't ask me to write in it! )

I'll see "ya'll" in the main forums!
