Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to introduce myself. I see some of you have come across my HP Prime 3D Racer game. It's my fourth serious Prime project after a solitaire card game, a Chip-8 emulator and Turing machine emulator. You can find those at the HPCC web site that I'm the web master for. Click on the Prime on the front page and scroll down to the bottom for the programs and club magazine articles.
I've been playing with programmable calculators since around 1978. I've progressed through the Commodore P50, TI-57, Casio fx-502p, Casio fx-702p, HP-41CV, HP-41CX, HP-71B, HP-48SX, HP-48GX and now I'm onto the HP Prime. My wife has a HP-32SII (she's a programmer and RPN girl). My eldest daughter has a HP-39gII. My youngest daughter has yet to be converted from her iPad mini and Galaxy S5, but I'm sure as Maths gets more fun for her she'll be twisting my arm.
I've recently found my old Casio MG-880, still working, still with its original batteries in my bedroom at my Mum and Dad's house. Brilliant game! I must write one of those for the HP-41 when I get some time.
If anyone is in London on the second Saturday of the month do come along to Imperial College and meet the HPCC crew. Details on our web site. Better still join up and get the club magazine posted to you - how old school is that!
Have fun.
