Overview

The first graphing calculators produced by Texas Instruments were designed to only run programs written in their BASIC-like programming language. You could not program at the machine level of the calulator by any official means. Some people found ways of "getting around" TI's operating system so that programs written in assembly language (ASM) could be executed. Several "shells" have been developed and they are freely availible on the internet. Eventually, TI began officially supporting assembly language programming on their products, beginning with the TI-83 model. The TI-86, TI-92 Plus, TI-89, and TI-83 Plus also contain this functionality.
