Bug Fix!: I'm updating a program for the first time in two and a half years to fix a bug I just discovered in PhysCard for the TI-85. In Chapter 1: Unit Conversions, the unit for Ohms incorrectly was programmed as m*s. This has been corrected to reflect that an Ohm is 1 V/A. My apologies! With this change, the program version has increased to 1.1.

Notecards: perfect for AP courses, you will find CalcCard (for AP Calculus BC) and the final release of PhysCard (AP Physics C), which I wrote and used myself, with good results. This pair of programs contains all the useful formulas from every part of the subjects, and a few useful built-in calculating tools. Especially check out Chapter 1, Unit conversions, in PhysCard, which simplifies any combination of any SI units.

New Program Format: Now, all programs are presented in .uue format, for easier downloading. The Graph-Link software has built-in UUDecoding.
Yes! This is the source for Monopoly-85, TI-85the graphical, animated, calculator version of the classic board game. You can always find the most recent copy available for download.

Finally: Sawnose Software also has a TI-92, TI-92and has just released a new version of Quadform-92, which should fix a bug which appeared in newer ROM versions. Stay tuned for more quality 92 programs over the next few months.
Plus: Sawnose Software has also bought a TI-83. TI-83So you know what that means...83 programs starting with Quadform-83! TI-83 icons have been added to my collection, too.
Improved:Windows users have got to see my new collection of Windows icons for the link software, data files, or whatever use you may have. Optimized for Windows 95 use, these icons contain 16x16 pixel images, in the same file as the standard 32x32. This way, they look great at any size. Now includes icons for every single Ti-8x and -92. Also updated are the prgram PascalT, and my flagship program, Quadform.

It's the Monopoly-85 Launch Event

Monopoly:Monopoly is still in its Beta 0.5 release, but watch for updates soon. Users of Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0 can download an ActiveX viewer for Microsoft PowerPoint, and then view This Program Demo, which finally works correctly.

Today, Beta-test Monopoly and send comments to me at:

Sawnose Software Program List

ProgramVersionProgram Notes
ZIP.UUE..
Monopoly-85 0.5 Download Monopoly-85 Beta (v 0.5) Now. This program lets up to eight players play simultaneously, each using his own name. The pictures took many a class period to draw, and the dice roll themselves in an animated manner. You can mortgage, land in jail, or do anything else that is in the real game, and the final version will even have an option to save a game to a file so that it can be resumed later, even on another calculator.

Quadform-85
 
Quadform-92

6.0
 
6.4
Quadform 6.x works forward, backwards and sideways to get the answer! There are hundreds of math programs out there, but none beats this all-in-one quadratic function analyzer: You've got to see it to believe it! New: Now includes Table module, Focus, and Directrix. Look for Table in module Qform as Eval. Improved interface doesn't leave numbers scattered all over from overflowing irrationals, and Table pauses after a period of time. The new version fixes a bug that made QuadRoot jump back to the menu. The 85 version is edit-locked for security; I had to remove this feature from teh 92 version because TI has apparently fixed the bug in newer ROM versions that made this trick possible.
Logbase-85 3.0 Logbase-85 is another useful little program for all those who can't quite do other-base logarithms in their head. It satisfies any logarithm need.
Sequence-85 3.0 Sequence will solve for any of a number of sequence-realted variables. This program covers arithmetic and geometric sequences.
Series-85 3.0 The same high quality as Sequence, Series solves for related variables in arithmetic or geometric sequences. Same principle.
Mean-85 3.0 One Mean program :-) Use this in conjunction with the above two programs, and you have a powerful trio. Mean finds a specified number of arithmetic, geometric, or harmonic means betwen two numbers.
PascalT-85 3.0 This program displays Pascal's Triangle up to a specified row, or just the one row. One caveat: since it displays as a matrix, the maximum size depends on your free memory.
Prime-85 2.0 Lists all prime numbers up to a sepcified limit. Like the above program, more free memory helps.
LineArt-85 2.0 LineArt-85 is for any of you interested in a fascinating graphics program. This three-in-one contains the tremendously popular Rotate-85, Reflect-85, and Curve-85 into a slick new interface. Download it today!
TTT-85 1.0 Tic-Tac-Toe-85 is for the casual gamer. It is a two-person game that is really fast, and knows when the game is over. No frills, but it does have a nice cursor that lets you see where you're going. You don't know what you're missing.
CalcCard-85 1.0 In time for May, CalcCard can help on Calculus finals or the AP test. Layed out in the format of my textbook, this notecard program includes all the major formulas. All are completely correct, to the best of my knowledge. Good luck.
PhysCard-85 1.1 Here is the updated release of a notecard program for the AP Physics C curriculum. It contains all the useful formulas from my textbook, provided without warrantee but with my personal assurance that I, too, used it. Please test it out, and tell me how it goes.
TI-Icons 7.0 TI Windows Icons are for any Windows users of you out there. You probably have several versions of link programs and converters. I personally didn't like the supplied icons, so I came up with my own set. You see five of them here, such as the image links to my files, but there are many more included, covering the TI-82, TI-85, and now the TI-92, TI-83, TI-81 and TI-80. A new format allows them to be viewed clearly in 16x16 mode, for Windows 95 users.

As I am interested in finding out more about my users and their needs, consider this software shareware, with the only requirement being an e-mail note to RogerW7979@earthlink.net telling me your name, the program you're trying, and the area you live in. If you have any suggestions for improvement, feel free to add them. Of course, if you have nothing but praise, send that in too. Happy calc-ing!
