						 <p>Hello, everyone! Just for fun, I am making a challenge for you to complete. <strong>This challenge is targeted toward those who don't have a lot of experience in TI-Basic programming.</strong> But anyone with any experience level may participate.</p> <p>In this challenge, you will convert the <strong>current date and time</strong> to a <span style="text-decoration: underline;">percentage</span> that represents the progress of the year.</p> <p>For an example input of the current date and time, the following temporary lists will be used:</p> <p>Code:</p> <div class="code"> <pre><code>getDate→L1 getTime→L2</code></pre></div> <p>And the output will be a percentage that looks like this:</p> <p>Code:</p> <div class="code"> <pre><code>32.18 (% symbol is NOT required!)</code></pre></div> <p>Another example is the start of the year is the very beginning of the year is 00.00 and the end is 99.99.</p> <p>Requirements:</p> <ul> <li>The program must be equal to or less then <strong>750 bytes</strong></li> <li>The program must be compatible on <span style="text-decoration: underline;">all</span> models of the TI-84 Plus family (including color editions)</li> <li>The program must be compatible with <strong>OS 2.20+ (no 2.53MP+ commands)</strong></li> <li>The code must be YOURS! <span style="text-decoration: underline;">You may not copy it from other people.</span></li> <li>The output MUST have a fixed decimal place of two. (eg. 56.32)</li> <li>The output value must be <strong>&gt;0 and &lt;100.01</strong></li> <li><em>No assembly is permitted.</em> This includes ICE, Axe, BBC Basic, Grammar, etc.</li> <li><em>No libraries of any kind are permitted</em> including Celtic III, xLib, Axe, BatLib, etc.</li> <li><em>You must work on this by your own.</em> If you had help from others, what's the point?</li> <li>The deadline is 12:00 AM on January 1st, 2021 UTC.</li> <li>This program must work with any date and time of any year, <strong>INCLUDING LEAP YEARS.</strong></li> </ul> <p>You can take all the time you need, no need to rush!</p>
