im doing

singles:

 if ∟COMP(1)>∟CARD(1 ∟COMP(1)→∟CARD(1 

something like that…
its so annoying

it is pending right now.

I am thinking it probably resides in the fact that it is extremely difficult to get a working ROM off of a ti84. I still don't know how i did it…

My only suggestion is to try different rom downloading programs. I tried a bunch before i got mine to work.

Instring works by returning the position of a string inside of another string. for example 'a' has a position of 1 in string 'abcdef'. The way you could make this work for your card game is have all the cards values stored into a string. 'A1234567890JQK' 0 being a 10. (That might be the wrong order, i'm not an expert') and then another string to classify its suit. 'HSCD' Hearts, Spades, Clubs, Diamonds.

You could then identify each card by a number. 12,2 would be the Jack of Spades. The numbers would help in ranking the kard as well. A 9,2 would be worth more than a 4,2. You could then denote your hand by a list of numbers.

9,2,5,4,2,1,7,3,13,3,6,1,2,2 for example would be a 7 card hand. Every two elements of the list represents 1 card, 14 elements being 7 cards.

In order to find out if you have doubles or triples or such, you could set up a system to find patterns in the numbers. I won't try to write this out for you, but i will give an example idea for finding singles and doubles.

The program first sets up a card list with 13 elements all at 0 for all 13 types of cards

The program goes through every even element of the list, and adds a 1 to the element in the card list that corresponds to the number that it finds. For example if the program found a 3 in the first element, it would add a 1 to element 3 of the card list.

At the end, if any of the elements in the card list had a 2, we know that you have two of the card that is represented by that element. This program could also be adapted to finding threes or fours as well.

As for finding other combinations such as flushes, full houses, straits, and so on, you will have to think of those on your own. Although feel free to ask any questions.

I'm really trying to find a good emulator to program more efficiently. (debugging and stuff). But neither the emulators I've tried, works/accepts my .rom. I tried every compatible emulator on this site. (I've got a TI-84Plus). TiLP and TilEM didn't work, and wabbitemu doesn't accept my rom. Help!

Once more:thanks, James!

just convert the cards into string characers and compare them to a string

You know what? Re-writing a game is a very very long process, and it takes moments of high motivation to get back at it. Don't give up though. Your new-found knowledge will improve the game dramatically!

The game will be similar to the game I already produced, but it will incorporate more elements from the real game, while still using turn based enemies.

The room loading will still be instantaneous, and based on a new engine that i am designing using strings. Instead of building the matrix off of the string, or building the string off of the Matrix, it uses the String as the matrix.
So far, everything is working really well.

I know it has things like Gama and such

addition is the same thing, sort of, like a clock.
(24 hour clock) 13:00=1:00 PM→ 13 mod 12=1
5:00AM + 10 hours= 15:00→ 15 mod 12= 3:00 PM

Would you like to change the description of the program page due to recent changes as well? Because it is perfectly possible to not only update the program file, but also to update the program image and description.

thanks everyone!

if you need anymore help, just ask.

Thanks beforehand, James!

Just upload the new version in a .zip file, and I'll do the mumbo jumbo for you ;)

thanks anyways

(I know it probably wouldn't make it go faster, but if i could reduce it to a lot of small subprograms, it would run faster and the user would never know)

Sorry for that rant.

Besides, if you do what I do an package it in an app, Which only takes a few minutes, then no one will know it has any subprograms, the appvar is safe, the appvar can store text, and your program can't be edited.

 "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzθñÑ...→Str0 (1 char long each, no sin(, cos(, etc) {1,2,2,3,4,5,6,6,6,9,7→L₁ fpart(L₁/3)3→L₁ For(X,1,dim(L₁ Str1+(sub(Str0,L₁(X),1))→Str1 End 

Try that, sometimes, it works.

{1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1→L₁
program…
rcl L₁
{1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1}

For me to do that, I would have to come up with an ingenious way to write that part of the program with minimal size taken up… we'll see.

You see, the only buttons this program responds to are the top 5 buttons (F1, F2, etc, etc.), 2nd, ENTER and QUIT (MODE).

When you pressed 1, 2 and 3, what did you expect to happen? Perhaps I could intigrate what you would expect to be an actuality?

…and its back again

Adding round( to the expression — that is, changing it to round(3fPart(L₁/3 — should fix the problem if it occurs in the future.

ex:

 "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzθñÑ...→Str0 (1 char long each, no sin(, cos(, etc) {1,2,2,3,4,5,6,6,6,9,7→L₁ fpart(L₁/3)3→L₁ For(X,1,dim(L₁ Str1+sub(Str0,L₁(X),1→Str1 End 

The calc said err:domain at X=1
however, when i put the same thing in a temporary program, it worked perfectly. but it still said err:domain when i tried the sub( part on the homescreen
does the fpart( count as an equation?

It's at times like this that I really wish we could do calculator VNC.
