Most if not all of the functions of a TI-84 are possible in GKC. It will probably not be possible due to memory constraints. If you want to attempt this most likely week long project I recommend you start with this:
Thanks! I need a basic display that can be programmed into displaying stuff. Like building an interpreter that can turn basic text on to the display, thanks for the support. I will make a simple guide if I can get this to work
The main end goal Is a functioning display, but if I can nail that I could possibly take it up a step by adding basic calculations. Then simplifying down so I can add advanced calculations to get my end goal. ITS JUST A THEORY, A GIMKIT THEORY
And I believe it’s possible, and might even want to work with you on this. Getting a display will be easy, but I have a TI-84 right in front of me and there are so many functions, they will not all be possible because of memory. You will have to choose what functions you want.
Hello! Pretty sure I’m the resident graphing calculator in gimkit expert guy here, and I think it possible. Display technology isn’t well documented, and there’s only been about 3 examples as far as I know of it being used in any somewhat complex way (not using a text device for every pixel), so you’d be pretty much on your own.
I’m looking at my TI-84, and there are multiple different menus that must be programmed, along with equation display. There’s functions to do proper display of division signs (alpha + x), so that would have to be done too. That’s a problem I’m personally struggling with.
You’d also have to manage the base calculator itself, supporting variable assignment, regression, calculus, etc. I’m currently trying to make a base calculator, and I’m struggling a lot haha. So it’s not quite as easy as just making a display sadly.
There’s also this guide that explains the display technology behind the graphing calculator. However, it is a high memory design and probably isn’t the best method to use for this project. It’s a good starting place though.
The issue however is that the TI-84 supports solving for things all the way up to calculus and beyond, and a lot of high level math concepts. I think the best solution is to probably just try and implement the graphing of polynomials, basic trig functions, logarithms, square roots, exponentials, and then build from there.
Also from a time point of view, this will take much longer than a week (unless you’re an insane programmer), so keep in mind this is probably a pretty big time investment.
I cannot belive I have @Blackhole927 on my post Thanks for the support, I think I’m going to make a display with a text interperter. (ex: Text to Display). This might be hard, I’m going to have to use the knowledge of Python and JavaScript combined with all of the logics I know to convert a basic Text to Display into Gimkit block code. I don’t know if it’s completely possible I will try, If I can make it work I will have it ready by the end of year. (because of school plus other events)
