You know I PWN you when it comes to calculators.  I'm coming to the math competition this Saturday armed with:
TI89Titanium
TI89
TI83+
TI86 (If I can find it)
TI83 (If I can fit it in my pants)
and a whole crapload of AAA batteries.

Two syllables: Ma-ple.

Paul actually places more consistently than you, though. I was at almost every single competition last year... and I remember him placing a lot more often than you.

And besides, what good is being "god" with a calculator if you don't do well in the competitions anyways?

I mean, Nick does a lot better than you, especially at the sprint. And he has a TI-83+. Kinda sad, eh? So, ya know, he doesn't really even need the calculator to pwn you. >_> No bragging rights for j00.

And we've all written programs just in time to solve a problem. Some of us don't feel the need to brag about it, though. >_> It's commonplace amongst math competition participants.

Paul? No. Paul usually loses to me by a few points. Stephanie uses a Hello Kitty calculator so she doesn't count. Jeffery's just crazy and Nick rarely does well at the sprint. None of them are as good with the TI systems as I. FOR EXAMPLE how about that last competition? I wrote a program to solve that one problem just in time! That was great...

Heh.  Yeah.  So.... I'M GOD WITH THE CALC!!!

If you're God with the calculator, then what are Stephanie, Jeffrey, and Nick? Not to mention Paul, who actually beats you fairly often? O_o;;

3. How To Learn A Programming Language - overview of the best way to go about learning a programming language. (0)

   How to Learn a Programming Language 1. Choose a programming language. Pythonand Turtle
   Graphics are good starter languages. they are very straightforward and easy to learn. Also, there is
   a module called Pygame available that makes handling windows a breeze. Another programming language
   for a beginner to try is Kids Programming Language, or KPL's new version, called Phrogram.
   Don't be put off by KPL's name! Once you learn the basic concepts of programming, you
   can then take those ideas into any programming language you choose. Be aware however...

4. Need Help With Correct Programming - (2)

   O.K. here's the deal. I can't go to school to learn programming like I want, because I have
   outstanding student loans that I can't pay on. So, since I'm here, I figure I'll ask
   some questions. With regards to the basics, HTML, should I be using HTML when creating my site or
   the XHTML? I'm still a little unsure of the exact differences, but once I know were to go, I
   will get the correct books and website information. And what about CSS? Is there newer or older
   versions? I have one book already which teaches some about HTML and CSS, but I hav...

5. Programming As A Career - (7)

   Yeah! You saw it wright. "Programming vs Career" not "Programming and Career". Let me elaborate.
   I am 19 and have been programming for few years now. My language wallet is comprised of GW Basic
   (that I learnt in my school), C++ (in Higher Secondary) and the VB 6.0 IDE (perhaps the easiest of
   them all). Currently I am prepairing for the Joint Entrance Exams, here in India, for Computer
   Science and Engineering. Actually, I am not quite into studying my course material and my career is
   in disarray, because of my immense passion for Computers, be it Programming, Gaming...

6. Function Programming - About Function Languages - mostly OCAML (1)

   two years ago i have discoverred function programming. i'd like to shortly discuss it here and,
   maby, encourage some of you to try your skills writing functions. when programming imperatively,
   programmers often think of solving the problem in language categories. here i'd use an array,
   here i could use a pointer etc. funtion programming does not give programmer such tools. even more -
   thers is no such thing as variable. function programming was invented by mathematicians. it's
   very simmilar to mathematical modelling of universe. solving a problem - writing...

7. HP RPN: HP Calculator Programming Language - (0)

   I like it because it's a fairly easy language to do just about anything on my non-graphic
   calculator. The biggest problem I find with it is a lack of memory. I figured out a very simple
   way to program TicTacToe into it with some decent AI, but I was only able to put about 3/4 of the
   program into the calculator. *sigh* maybe I'll have to steamline the code some more, or figure
   out some other games I can make that don't require graphics... --YB...
