TCalc v0.01 (TIFF calculator)
One of the homebrew scene’s well-known developers, SG57, has just released another TIFF application for everyone. This time around, he has developed a simple calculator which is a port of the LUA version first made by Shine. If you’re not impressed yet, you might want to take a look at the functions of this application as enumerated by SG57 himself:
Basic Math (+, -, /, *)- Negative Number Support
- Basic Trig Functionality (sine, cosine)
- Square Root Function
- Other useful routines (x/2, x^2)
- more functionalities
- Easy-to-use GUI
- Good for everyday math (depending on math level)
- Source Code Included
The said functions make this application a rather handy thing to have. However, SG57 himself has also pointed out in the readme file included that there are still several bugs in the program which may be fixed in future updates.
- Decimal Support – its in there but rounds decimal to whole number. This means sine, cosine get rounded making them a tad pointless. I hope with me releasing the source, this gets changed upon (note – its only a problem since my manual atoi/itoa function only supports string -> int conversion, not string -> long/float.
- Tangent – lacking as I cant find the correct NID at the moment. Once again, i hope by releasing the source this gets looked into. All one must do is stub and link the tanf function, than uncomment the tan routine (in ProcessKeys)
- No Character Limit – this means one can keep entering a number/s and have it go off screen and appear on the next line and whatnot. I really dont feel like fixing this (too lazy to apply scientific notation :P) as it just crashes your PSP after randomly coloring the calculator’s display so… If your not gonna bother to use this app like it was intended for – than dont use it at all…
- Difficulty Running – I dont know about you all, but after upgrading to SE-B”, I’ve had difficulty running my TIFF homebrew without it freezing up/crashing on boot up so… If you cant get it to start after the 10th time, dont give up as i can assure you it works 😉
