TI-92 Programs Page
Here's a collection of several TI-Basic/92 programs I wrote over the years. To be more specific, when I was still in high school (yikes, that was a long time ago).
You have the choice of either downloading the *.92P file containing the program, or, if you want, you can look at the text source of the program obtained by exporting a program as text from the TI-92 Graph-Link software. Note: There are special representations of symbols in these text files, and some of the programs listed below require additional data files which are included in the ZIP file available for download.
PicTools Suite
The PicTools Suite
is a completely integrated set of image manipulation tools (i.e.
Used with PIC variables). It is composed of a set of four units:
PicZoom, PicPlot, PictureMaker, and Generate Pic. They are
distributed as one integrated program, but they are shown
separately here for discussion purposes.
Current Version: 2.0e
PicZoom
PicZoom is a
program for taking existing PIC variables and zooming in on them,
making them larger and a bit easier to view. It takes a little
time, however, to generate the new picture. Its really easy to
work with and you could find a use for it on your calculator.
Just take a look at the results!
Current Version: 2.0
PicPlot
PicPlot is a
pixel-by-pixel image editor. It can save a fixed length picture,
as well as a matrix containing all of the points represented by
0's and 1's. You can use it to make quick nips and tucks, as well
as overhauling some images. I used it to re-create the pics used
in StarBlaster (Believe me, they looked very bad before I wrote
this program!) This is a very useful program and a great addition
to your collection.
Current Version: 3.0
PictureMaker
PictureMaker is a utility for
generating program code to recreate a picture. It creates the
complex matrices necessary for use with the NewPic instruction
(If you don't know what it does, look it up!). The files it
generates, however, are quite large. It also takes some time to
scan the picture and generate the code. However, anything that
makes a developer's job easier is a welcome addition!
Current Version: 2.0e
Generate Pic is just a small app
that takes matrices generated by PicPlot and creates new picture
variables out of them; it is fairly self-explanatory.

Base-N Converter
The Base-N Converter is a conversion
utility for converting from to different number bases from
decimal. It comes preconfigured for the four most common bases
(Binary, Hex, Octal) and you can define your own. Useful for the
computer guy.

Rick's Compatibility Test
This is a test for testing your
compatibility with other people. Its tests are rather
self-explanatory and easy to use. It tracks all comparisons made
and these data variables can be viewed with the ltresult()
program, included in the package. When deleting the data files
associated with the main program, be sure to use ltresult or
everything will get out of whack. Have fun!

StarBlaster
One of the few TI-Basic games I
have written, StarBlaster is a 1 or 2 player game that is
basically I shoot you, you shoot me. It's pretty fun to play,
too, especially when you are playing against someone else! It
comes with a complete help program, so you can easily figure out
how to play.

Virtual Address Book
Virtual Address Book is a suite
of three separate programs that allow you to track your phone
numbers. Addbook is the data entry component, QReport is the data
retrieval component, and QReport is a data filtering component.
Very simple and useful for tracking your phone numbers without
relying on an expensive organizer.
