1. I received my first TI-83+ license in my Sophmore year in high school. It was great, and I was great at it. Unfortunately, I was too great at it, and the following year, my trigonometry teacher and the board of directors revoked my TI-83+ license for coding Proggies that would instantly shoot out answers. |
Yes.

Yes.
I spent basically my final whole year at school coding my ti-83 in basic to spit out answers to trigonometry, factorisation, chemistry etc. At the end of the year I didn't know how to do ANY of the coursework, but I had programs that could answer 80% of the questions on the exams just by inputting the variables. I passed everything and ended up doing quite well.
I also spent copius amounts of time coding and distributing games during class, which half the year level ended up having. I made a horse racing game where you could be win/place and then six horses would actually race across the screen and probably five others, dope wars clones etc.
However, by far my greatest achievement was a chat program I wrote for the ti-83, so that in class you could hook up a cable to the guy next to you and ask for answers to questions in the middle of minor tests and exams without speaking out loud. It worked a treat.
Yes, without my ti-83, I never would have passed final year.
