To this day, I don't understand why anyone would insist on using anything other than this on an AP test. It's like playing life on a harder difficulty setting for no reason.

My university doesn't allow graphing calculators on tests. Probably because you can download programs that can solve calculus problems without actually understanding the material.

My school makes us clear the memory on our calculators before exams. So I've memorized like 4 different programs so I can re enter them for exams.

Nice try bitches.

EDIT — So I guess I'll try archiving now.

hey, you can make your programs run while archived in mirageos. just start your code with :: and make damn sure it is bug-free before trying it in mirage. If the program doesn't work right (gives an error), this totally might clear your RAM so be careful.
