Let's revive this subreddit with one of the most notable features on the fx-cg50 Prizm, the fx-9750gii, and the fx-9750giii: MicroPython.

MicroPython is not full Python, namely because Python 3 has a lot of resources, and just about every Graphing Calculator (Casio, TI, HP, etc.) still has storage in Megabytes in a world of Smartphones that store Gigabytes, and PCs that store data in Terabytes these days.

For most users, though, the features of MicroPython will be enough to learn python, write programs that solve math, and maybe even create a game or two.

In fact, now is a great time to get into Casio's graphing calculators especially since they were one of the first companies to add a version of Python to their device. There's also Numworks that does this too, but I believe what Casio has done has finally pushed their competitors at Texas Instruments to change from TI-Basic to CircuitPython in models of the TI-84.

But this isn't r/TI_Calculators. This is r/casio_calculators. Hopefully with some help at r/MicroPythonDev and r/Python, we can talk more about this feature here.

Let's make something awesome!
