TI-BASIC, as in TI-99/4A?
How many times did you lose your work due to a fat-fingered FCTN-= instead of SHIFT-=?
At least that prepared 6 year old me for the adult world of "rm -rf . *".
- cozuya 12y agoI made a blackjack program on my TI-85 (with real arrays of suits!) that took 5 minutes to compile...
- SAI_Peregrinus 12y agoProbably TI-89 or TI-83+ graphing calculator BASIC, given his age.
- ams6110 12y agoYou never know. I finally took my 99/4A to the recyclers just a few years ago. Had had it since new in high school, and it still worked.
- ams6110 12y agoIIRC if you had the Extended BASIC cartridge you could poke a value in a certain address and disable the FCTN-= action (which was an immediate reset of the computer, losing any unsaved work).
- GeneralMayhem 12y agoTI-83+ for me; the TI-99 is a decade older than I am.
