Yeah true, it does seem like we inspired each other in some respect. You know I just noticed how much my last attempt looks like you deleted 3rd attempt. But then again i think 12 bytes would be the smallest theoretical size, so only the most basic instructions could remain.
I really think we should go for speed next based on a size limit. Because we bend the rules so much the routine almost becomes unusable(at least in a practical sense). As far as judging goes, perhaps cobb could add a tstate counter to pindur.
Certainly, but why don't you grab an instruction reference and work it out yourself? It's not a long routine after all, and it would be a good exercise for you.
of course I know reading is important. Almost all of the things I've learned comes from reading, not from some school teacher (english is an exception). I just didn't realize there were so many resources until after i joined the Ti community forums.
okay, I read about rra for the Ti-86, i'll just assume it's the same on Ti-83+. But how is shifting through the carry flag different from rca? was that the other one?
Read over http://nwps.ws/~dragonfire/Asmin28/lesson/day09.html once, to get the general idea of how shift instructions work. Then when you need them, look back over that page to figure out which instruction it is that you need.
Lemme find it, I wrote it on a piece of paper during calculus and I'm not sure if I still have it, nor if I used the instructions correctly. Bleh, I shouldn't have said anything.
