Duktape - A JavaScript interpreter for the Nspire [ti-nspire]

Aah ok, I'll check there then.

I added some bindings, key functions and file io about a week ago. Graphics hasn't been added due to lack of time.

Good to know that this is still active though

u/Dream of Omnimaga March 23, 2015, 04:17:05 AM

Yeah I'M glad this is still alive. I can understand updates are slow due to lack of time, though. Hopefully life isn't too hard on you as well >.<

Good luck! By the way, I haven't kept up with Omni topics in a long while: Is nPDF still a thing?

Interesting benchmarks will be done whenever he has time to add the basic graphics stuff

(Well, I guess I should start benchmarking the algorithms now, at least it will be done

)

I allow you to use my avatar for your project

Jokes asides, that name made me directly find the Duke Tape thing. Oh and benchmarcking could be useful to see if the project is viable for heavy projects. Do you have any methods for knowing how much memory is free for the interpreter?

u/Dream of Omnimaga March 23, 2015, 04:49:12 PM

Wait so that's this project that triggered the Duke Tape inside joke? I thought it was just a coincidence

Anyway yeah I am curious about how fast this will be. I know that some games are possible in JS so I wonder how feasible one would be on the Nspire using this language.

This has been a really busy month, with all of my math/science/other stuff competitions, plus school work.

nPDF is still a thing, but I haven't touched it in a while. (Pull requests are welcome.)

I never got the joke

Anyway, the Duktape website says it runs on systems with "256kB flash and 96kB system RAM."

Are you also in robotics? BEcause Hooloovoo and Pimath are as well. As for Duke Tape I never got the joke either. IIRC Eiyeron just started using the weird smiley randomly. Maybe an attempt to start some CW meme like with the "l'OL" thing.

Also nice and low memory requirements.

This is good news for Clickpad users because under OS 3.9 they only have like 2 MB besides the OS and Ndless.

u/Legimet March 24, 2015, 02:55:10 AM

No, I'm not in robotics.

I guess

is now my project's logo

u/Dream of Omnimaga March 24, 2015, 08:58:06 AM

l'OL Eiyeron has done it

u/Duke "Tape" Eiyeron March 24, 2015, 09:11:40 AM

I must say, old chap, this is quite f****ng epic, isn't it?

Tested by chaps, approved by the Duke!

And it wasn't a start of creating a meme. I just wanted to say it quite randomly as I was happy to find the punny name. I used the smiley originally as reaction to take some sort "old chap" reaction (like adding quite, or I must say). But well
