I am working on a math program which I want to introduce at the 2nd grade level. I can not expect the kids to do much but press the "on" button and follow the directions on the graph screen. I have downloaded the Start up App from Ti, which solves the problem of starting with the first program module. I am a newbie by your standards but was 79 years old this month so I want to develop small modules of code so that I can test them, one module at a time. I estimate there will about 300 modules and each module will be about the size of my first uncompleted module of 2759. I do not know the units of this size i.e. bytes whatever. You can see that all that will not fit in the Ram space. I have experimented with connecting my first module with the second module by ending the first module with the "prgmMODULE#" statement which seems to work.
I have read about an assembly program somewhere on the web which will store all things as archived. If true, that would solve the size problem, right?
So the first question "does anyone know if such a program exists and is bug free"
second question is "what do you think of my integration plan? Like is it just the brain fart of a newbie or does it have a chance to work?
The third problem has to do with what happens when the calculator shuts down. That is, where does it go when you press "on". Obviously, it will go to the first module unless there is a way to go to the beginning of the module which it was running prior to calculator shutdown. The completion of a module is controlled by criteria in the module like number correct out of total problems in a module. So I will never want to go back to a once completed module.
So my last question is "is there a way to mark a module as completed once it is completed so that the kid starts off at the start of the module he / she was working on prior to shut down"?
Sorry to be so long!
AND STILL I AM LEARNING
