Binary

I'm looking for some sort of exquation or function that I could work into BASIC for use on a TI-83 calculator I have. I'll take nearly anything, so long as it's BASIC in nature. I've looked around and can't find anything on conversion to/from binary so even some links would help.

Thanks,

I have programmed all sorts of Radix conversions in various languages, but am not sure what the TI-83 can do.

Does it have a Mod function? Does it process alphabetic data? What is the format desired for arguments to and results from a conversion function? Can it do Binary, Octal, or Hex arithmetic? When converting from Radix A to Radix B, it is a real pain if Radix A arithmetic is not available.

Does the TI-83 have a BASIC-like programming language? I use an HP48-GX which is really great. Most programmers I know prefer a Stack Calculator to an algebraic one. Have you ever used a Stack calculator?

Do you really want to convert from/to Binary? Perhaps you really want to convert from/to Octal or Hex. Binary is such a pain for human beings.

If you give me a bit more information, I might be able to provide some clues and/or algorithms.

BTW: My HP48-GX has builtin Binary, Hex, & Octal conversion for integers, but not for fractional values.

I've done this too, Strings are very crappy in Ti-83 so i did it with lists, a pretty useful datatype.

Wait until The search thing starts functioning on this site, i've posted my Ti-83 code somewhere, but we can't do search yet, it says
"Sorry. The search function has been disabled by the administrator."

BTw, if anyone knows what mod operator is in Ti-83 i'd be glad to know, until now i've done it like A-int(A/B)*B which is a very ugly way to do it.

All aritmetics is done with Radix10, my convertor converts between lists containing real datatypes as decimals> makes convertion between any bases upto 999 999 if i remeber correct

The programming language in ti83 is concentrated on mathematical functions and operators, a big deal of them that i've never used. There's lots of datatypes including graphical, lists, matrixes, real and imaginary, strings and probably some others too, some functions allows you to modify the graph display and such..
