Calculator-Based Laboratory
The Calculator-Based Laboratory (CBL) is a mobile data collection device manufactured by Texas Instruments in collaboration with Vernier Software & Technology and introduced in 1994. The CBL can be used to collect data either in conjunction with a TI graphing calculator, or on its own.[1]
Different from programming languages, it consists of a set of commands starting with a colon (:) which are to be executed in existing applications such as the default calculator and the graphical calculation program.
A CBL script example
:smplprgm() :Prgm :Request "Give a value.",userin :expr(userin)^2*π!result :Disp result :EndPrgm
gollark: I bet you'll tell me it doesn't use a global ERRSTRING variable for error handling next.
gollark: Really? Hmm.
gollark: How do they interact with the Macron borrowed GC malloc checker?
gollark: Where is the spec for them?
gollark: Does macron have them?
