Reviving a Vintage Graphing Calculator with AI
Imagine the nostalgia of coding a DOS-based graphing calculator in the mid-90s. In this digital journey, I ventured back to my A-Level project, combining passion with technology to resurrect old code using AI. Here’s a glimpse of what I discovered:
-
The Project: A graphing calculator developed in Turbo Pascal, featuring basic graphing functionalities and a unique user interface.
-
Challenges Faced:
- Compatibility issues with modern operating systems.
- Limited project resources and missing components.
-
AI Revolution:
- Employed AI tools like Gemini 3 and Claude Opus to bridge the gap.
- Successfully transformed my old code with minimal changes, allowing it to run smoothly on modern systems.
The culmination? A functional app reminiscent of the ’90s, equipped with a contemporary twist!
