Official Name: ramCode

Memory Address: 8100h

Length: 304 bytes.

This area of memory is used for storing bits of code that must be run from RAM.

Code is run from RAM for two reasons:

When writing to Flash, the calculator cannot simultaneously be executing in Flash.
When no OS is loaded, RAM code is used to read data in Flash that is not on the boot page.

This area is also used to store big integers of up to 128 bytes, and the big integer multiplication routine places its output here.

-This area of memory stores the value of pi accurate to two million BCD digits. This is the value that is promptly truncated to only 14 digits by all the math routines.
+This area of memory is used for storing bits of code that must be run from RAM.
 == Comments ==
-This value can be recalculated by talking to the people inside the calculator (or that's what my math teacher says.)
+Code is run from RAM for two reasons:
+* When writing to Flash, the calculator cannot simultaneously be executing in Flash.
