Today I learned a few more tricks for my TI-oh-so-awesome-and-getting-awesomer-89 calculator. You can solve systems by using the solve() function with AND from the catalog and {x,y,etc.} as the variable. Also, there are useful hidden functions from the diamond button that aren't shown on the keys including, factorial under diamond-divide, and log() under diamond-7.
I also learned that in programming j is used instead of i for imaginary numbers since i is used for current, MATLAB however will accept either. And I decided that there is a list of "Not-so-great-things" which is different from the list of "OK-things" but both fall under the spectrum of mediocrity. These are thanks to late night thoughts by C.R. and M.M. at about 3am-ish this morning.
Also, I learned that Flash memory works by running far too high of voltage through a transistor which gets electrons stuck into the 'on' or 'off' for memory. At least that's how it was explained to me, I have a feeling there was more to it than that...
