Re: Spoken Rubbish
I have a 9th-generation iPad. I have updated my iOS version to 27.0.1. The 'starter loop' no longer seems to be necessary. I cannot explain why. In the attached version, I have made a small change. Originally, the words always began with a consonant. I have adjusted this so that there is now an almo...

This revealed that the first value of SAYING() following the command SAY TEXT T$ was 0. Consequently, I added a wait loop to the program that continues until SAYING()=1: DO ! UNTIL SA...

Mass on Spring Resonance
A mass on or attached to a spring enters resonance upon being excited. Unlike a pendulum, its frequency does not depend on gravity. See http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/shm2.html The accompanying program provides a simulation of such a resonance. The program is suitable for iPad and iPhone...

Setting the Tormek grinder
There may be a minor issue when setting the grinding angle on the Tormek grinder. The attached report describes the problem and two solutions. One of the solutions requires some calculations, for which a program in Smart Basic has been included. 20260720 Update: Link to Apple store corrected to US-v...

Re: Chorale from St Matthew Passion
Sad but beautiful music.
It becomes a bit more cheerful if you increase the tempo.
The ending seems a bit abrupt.
Thanks for sharing.

Re: Extension of NOTES
I really don't understand anything about accelerando, diminuendo, ritardando, etc., but I think your program is a special achievement.
Hopefully Mr Kibernetik sees it as a valuable suggestion to add it to the app.

Re: Are you able to fill a simple input window?
Great input function for programs. Thanks.
For now, you hold the record: A nice game problem. Initially, it was impossible to finish on time.
I had to increase the "speed" variable to 4 to get enough time.
