PSP Simple Calculator changelog

v1.1 · Nov 10, 2006

Any good engineer will tell you that the simplest designs are often the best, and with this in mind, we're happy with the PSP Simple calculator ver 1.0 that the darkside 986 cooked up for us; It provided us with a quick, hassle-free PSP calculator app that mirrored that on the Windows OS, and didn't run on something as fiddly as Lua. The challenge is trying to improve on a design that already works well.

From the looks of it, darkside's pulled it off as he releases PSP Simple calculator 1.1, an update on his past brainchild. For those already used to the controls for version 1.0, you won't have to re-learn anything as he's kept the original setups, and aside from moving his name to the bottom, and centering the images on the screen, there's not much visual difference either.

What is different, though is that ver 1.1 is now released under a GPL license, meaning it's open-sourced. Looks like he's inviting the programming community to take a look at his app, and see what they can do to make it better. Once again, thank you darkside for this simple yet handy app.

v1.0 · Aug 20, 2006

The_darkside_986 from the QJ forums has released version 1.0 beta of his PSP Simple Calculator homebrew application coded in C. Now, you may start to moan because there are many homebrew calculators out there at the moment, but the_darkside_986 did do a little research before making this and describes his calculator as for users who do not wish to hassle themselves with using the LUA player or the complexity of using and setting up a powerful graphic calculator.

If you are uncertain abou the power of this calculator, the_darkside_986 describes it as the same as Microsoft's windows calculator when used in simple mode. It may not be great for high-level mathematics but it does work well and doesn't require any setting up, it's all just pick up and play.
