CEmu or ICE? Not really hard to choose :trollface:

Oh hey, I see the PB is 3rd :P

But whoever wins this tie, congrats to both authors/contributors :)
Trying to be objective, I suppose CEmu has a much bigger impact than ICE for obvious reasons but it's been around way longer than ICE, so... ^^

Yeah, that ICE of about 2 months old is equal to an emulator of more than 6 months old. Says more about ICE than about CEmu ^^ :trollface:

I personally thought Pokémon Quadratic Equation Sorver would win by default, even if it neither exists nor is part of the poll. :P

So it is down to 2 TI-84+CE programs (sort of, in the case of CEmu.)  Both are worthy of representing the CodeWalrus community circa June 2016.

I would say ICE has been very notable, and I voted for it. I dont even think people know half of what you can do with CEmu, but hopefully that comes with time.

No one knows half of what you can do with CEmu or C, right? :P
/me thinks that there should be more documentation

Think of the CEmu (and C libs) source code as documentation - suddenly everything is explained in detail \o/

I agree, there should be more documentation. But the tools themselves have to be made first before the documentation. Documentation takes a lot longer to do correctly in a way that is brief and easily understandable

It was hard to vote really, because both are great so far. While CEmu is much more complete so far, I always had a penchant for new Axe-like language initiatives on calculators and it seems like ICE is headed in the right direction in terms of an Axe-like language.

I find CEmu much more useful than ICE, because we already have the C language and the project builder to have a bridge between Basic and ASM :P But this is my opinion :P
