Help!

We're glad you came by, but you might find what you're looking for elsewhere. TI-Basic Developer is not the site it once was. While its information on commands and other calculator features remains almost second-to-none, its forum, archives, and even hosting service, Wikidot, have been decaying for years. The calculator community would love to see what you're working on, or help you in your next coding adventure, but TI-Basic Developer is no longer the place to do it. Instead, you should head over to Cemetech (primarily American) or TI-Planet (primarily international). Both are active, well-established forums with their own archives, chatrooms, reference material, and abundant coding tools and resources. We'll see you there, we hope.

I need help with my programming

Help!

PixelMLP 09 Dec 2014 02:06

So, I've been copying some of the game's coding into my calculator. But when it shows the coding, it'll say something like: ":Output(10fPart(B),int(B)," // 1 space" and i don't exactly know what the "space" is. i can't find it anywhere in my calculator, and if i type that in, (using 2nd+Alpha) it still doesn't work. I'm very new to this programming, so i don't exactly know how to use it to well. Can anyone help?

it should be alpha 0

will that actually make the program work? or is it something else because it literally says "space" right there.

Re: Help!

alpha 0 is the character for space.

YES, i know this, but here's is the programming for it:

:26→K
:1.1→B
:{4Ans→A
:ClrHome
:For(A,1,E2
:randInt(1,16)+.1randInt(1,8→C
:Repeat C=Ans(1
:A→dim(⌊A
:⌊A(1
:Output(10fPart(Ans),int(Ans),"O
:Output(10fPart(B),int(B)," // 1 space
:Output(10fPart(C),int(C),"*
:getKey
:If Ans=45
:Goto 0
:If Ans=34 or 2>abs(Ans-25
:Ans→K
:⌊A(A→B
:⌊A(1)+(K=26)-(K=24)+.1((K=34)-(K=25
:If max(LA=Ans
:Goto 0
:Ans+16(not(int(Ans))-(17=int(Ans)))+.8(not(fPart(Ans))-(.9=fPart(Ans
:augment({Ans},⌊A→A
:End
:augment(Ans,{Ans(A→A
:End
:Lbl 0
:ClrHome
:A

This is snake, and see about eleven lines down, it literally says "space" in the coding, what do i do there when i'm inserting it into my calculator?

in coding // signals a developer's note, do not include it in the code.

Don't actually type "//1 space"

After the quotation mark to the left of this in the coding, just do [ALPHA] 0 and that will give you a space. If you're really worried whether or not there is actually a space there, then put another quotation mark after the space. You don't actually need the ending quote, however, and that is why the person who wrote this code typed "//1 space", for optimization reasons.

Thanks for the help, that makes a lot of sense now. I'm very new to this whole, programming on my calculator thing, but I want to get to know it really well. Thanks for the help!

I can't find the "⌊" symbol on the calculator this is not an L is it? it is the same snake program: :26→K
:1.1→B
:{4Ans→A
:ClrHome
:For(A,1,ᴇ2
:randInt(1,16)+.1randInt(1,8→C
:Repeat C=Ans(1
:A→dim(ʟA
:ʟA(1
:Output(10fPart(Ans),int(Ans),"O
:Output(10fPart(B),int(B)," //1 space
:Output(10fPart(C),int(C),"*
:getKey
:If Ans=45
:Goto 0
:If Ans=34 or 2>abs(Ans-25
:Ans→K
:ʟA(A→B
:ʟA(1)+(K=26)-(K=24)+.1((K=34)-(K=25
:If max(ʟA=Ans
:Goto 0
:Ans+16(not(int(Ans))-(17=int(Ans)))+.8(not(fPart(Ans))-(.9=fPart(Ans
:augment({Ans},ʟA→A
:End
:augment(Ans,{Ans(A→A
:End
:Lbl 0
:ClrHome
:A
