Where to I find the files needed to get my PicoCalc running???
I’m installing a higher end Pico 2 W instead of the bottom shelf one that comes with the kit!!!
Please help!!!
It depends which system you want to run.
Did you search the forum already, which alternatives are available?
Many users here want to use BASIC on their PicoCalcs, and assuming you are like them, you probably want to use it too. The best source for the latest PicoMite, which is a BASIC interpreter for the Pico 1(W) and Pico 2(W), adapted for the PicoCalc is here:
If you want something that is interactive but more like what you would probably use on your PC, I would suggest Python in the form of MicroPython and CircuitPython, ports of which come as part of the Picoware project which you can find in the following thread:
Note that there are other MicroPython and CircuitPython ports for the PicoCalc out there, but the Picoware ones appear to be the most actively maintained ones you can currently get your hands on.
If you are feeling more adventurous, and want to try out Forth, which is a very low level and fast but interactive and highly adaptable language, try out my zeptoforth, which can be gotten from:
Before you install it, though, please read everything in detail in zeptoforth/USING_THE_PICOCALC.md at master · tabemann/zeptoforth · GitHub. There are extensive online docs and a decent wiki on the GitHub for it that you should also read.
