Not really, its possible to reinstall the OS if you know how

But then you would be stuck with a expensive paperweight instead of a calculator.

I'd bet a few that you can probably erase the whole OS with TI-BASIC. If not, then… Assembly.

No, that's a good thing in this context.

Might be longer bytewise, but it keeps the program from being restricted to CE's.

That seems like the opposite of an optimization, not that it matters.

You could just type of "3.141592654" instead of using toString(.

I have improved my program. But it only works on the OS that has the toString( function.

toString(π)→Str1 While 1 Str1+Str1→Str1 End

This one specifically? I just typed in some random hex and checked to make sure that it actually crashed my CE instance. There shouldn't be any hex-codes listed anywhere that crash the calculator they were written for.

Ok. I have seen that one before on the hex-assembly program page. It is good to know that my program only works occasionally. Thanks!

I found this a while ago here, but I was never able to get to automatically clear the RAM. I had to recall Str1 on the homescreen to get it to crash. I tried your version in WabbitEmu with a CSE rom and an 84+SE rom, but no luck(and yes I removed the Stop token). I also tried it in CEmu which gave me ERROR: UNDEFINED, instead of ERROR: MEMORY, which is I was surprised by. What happened was that it deleted Str1 once it got too big, preventing a crash. If you want to guarantee that the calculator crashes, the only way to guarantee it is like this. The only problem is that you have to type this in Asm(prgmNAME, but that's probably actually a good thing since it would protect people from accidentally executing it thinking it was a basic program.

!ALERT! Running this program will result in your calculator erasing all of its RAM, which includes any saved programs. Run at your own risk. I built in a fail safe (Line 1) that will stop the program before it even does anything. Deleting line 1 will remove the fail safe.

PROGRAM:BREAK

:Stop :"LOL "→Str1 :While 1 :Disp Str1 :Str1+Str1→Str1 :End

The way this program works is it assigns a phrase ("LOL ") to Str1. It then infinitely adds that string to itself. It also displays the string so that you can watch as your calculator is dying. :) This is quick and easy to program. Don't abuse it.
