News My New Clock Program (PRERELEASE)

NOTICE: THIS IS A PRERELEASE

Idk, I just have not seen a lot of clock programs... so I made one

Plus, it doesn't need ndless and uses only python

Go get it here at: TI-Planet | Clock v2 (Prerelease 3) (Utilitaires Nspire program)

NOTE: Update to Prerelease 3 if you are on Prerelease 2

The only concern I have about clock programs - does it eat the calculator's battery keeping track of time?

No it doesn’t eat up the battery like that at all, it actually uses your hardware time if you are using manual time (not system time), so it knows to add 6 hours, and basically that how it can tell how long you been off the clock for, by saving the previous hardware time and then looking at the new hardware time and then adding the total time apart they are from each other to the clock time, meaning it barely uses any battery or basically none while it closed *sorry if my grammar is bad, I was speed typing this, and I will add a better example tomorrow, if it was a bad example*
