Hi and welcome to h2g2, I hope you have a great time here! I see you've already written chosen a nice nicname and written a great introduction. If there's anything else you need, don't hesitate to ask me, or any of the other ACEs at http://www.h2g2.com/A214796 . I'm looking forward to seeing these entries. I've stuck to Microsoft for my programming needs (QBASIC and VBasic - nothing fancy). Hope one of them will explain calculator algorithms - that should be interesting.
Remember, feel free to ask any questions,
Mr.Cynic

You sure learn quick - a GuideML Guide Entry with Sectioning already! That's an achievement for a first day 
.

Hi Mr. Cynic this researcher ain't called SmartGamer for nothing I think.
Welcome you may find this 
useful, if not find it a nice tank to live in.

I'm a programmer by trade; I've worked on the webpages marked in my article abou SiCoDe Software. BTW- What do you think about my article?

It's good but I don't think you need to section it. Sectioning is only really useful in very long entries. I would also like you to explain the ins and outs of the language - how it works, how it's implemented in the calculator etc.. It will make a great entry and I'm looking forward to reading it again .

Personally I think sectioning it was just wasted flare after all it's only just over one page when viewed as a whole after all. As for the content I'm just a dabbler it was over my head.

The calculator is a grapher with a 128+ page manual, and over 100kb of memory. I can explain algorithms that people with a manual could understand, but I'll try to comment it enough. I didn't know that sectioning split it up into multiple pages- I thought all it did was the bookmark links you get to with something like blahblahblah.html#Bookmark instead of pg 1, pg 2, pg 3. Thanks for the tip!

You're welcome!
I'm not a fan of sectioning - they started implementing it but I dislike it. However, now that I got a WAP device I do see it's upside!

I just finished part one of a new Guide article- it's posted, but I'll add much much more to it. I try to give as much information as I can so that even people who program other languages can understand this... or people who have never coded before.
