Welcome to the programming trivia community! This will be a spot where you can post questions related to the instance and others will have a chance to guess answers
Answers should be given in the comments around a day after the question was posted and do not look up answers on search engines if you are answering it. Just post a guess for what you think the answer is in the comments
Ill be doing daily questions (and will do some more today + tomorrow to start the community off) but feel free to post your own as well
To start off heres a history-related question, enjoy!
Yup!
Back in the eighties, TI made a pocket computer with a qwerty keyboard and these weird shaped memory cartridges. BASIC was the default language for them, though you could get a cartridge that allowed Pascal instead.
I got one after I did a summer course at a local college between freshman and sophomore years. It was kinda useless for anything much because the screen was a single line lol. But I set up a little rng program on it for d&d where I could press a given key and it would roll preset dice combos. Expensive toy, basically (pun intended)
