on the TI-83+/SE with OS 1.13 ONLY:

-install at least 50 or 60 programs on your calc (doesnt matter if they are in ram or not)
-open a program in the editor
-press prgm button
-go in the EXEC section of the prgm menu
-scroll down...

One time I was taking a test and took the square root of 48 or something and my calculator crashed! Everyone was wondering why I just started cracking up in the middle of the test

And Im not sure what caused this but now when I go to my Y= screen, the Plots aren't up on the top, and they aren't on the stat plot menu. Gonna fully reset it once I get my programs backed up, cause you know... we all use stat plots every day...

The thing is though when you calc crashes for no reason teachers tend to blame the fact that you play games on your calc and that it messes up the os and everything

Here's a virus program I made!!

Code: Select all

ClrHome
disp "You got cracked!!
Repeat 0
RandBin(999999999999,0
End

Pressing ON does not quit out of this loop!!

EDIT: Will reset calc!! Do not try this in less you want to reset your calc.

Ok, the calculator viruses are mildly amusing, but please don't further overload ticalc.org's archives with this.

The randbin stuff is especially nasty.

The numbers are so big, they are expressed only in scientific notation. Adding 1 to a large enough number won't affect it at all, since it's beyond the precision limit. Therefore, infinate loop!

Wow, what good error trapping the ti-os has
