Help fellow TI-83 programmer! That's what I would do back in my high school days. Also learned it to make silly little games like rock-paper-scissors, guess the random number (difficulty was larger number ranges, you'd get 'higher' or 'lower' as feedback after each guess, if you got it right it would list out how many tries it took), and of course a simple 8-ball.
I was also completely unhappy that schools tested learning and perfection at the same time. If I solve a physics problem using the correct formula but make some silly error along the way and get a wrong answer that really sucks since there's not usually enough time to check work. So... I wrote programs to solve any and all equations we'd learned so I could really quickly check my work for correctness. We had to write out all the steps to solve the problem anyway so it never felt like cheating to me, just proper validation :)
